Which one of the following is a polyamide polymer?
- A Terylene
- B Nylon-6,6
- C Buna-S
- D Bakelite
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Nylon-6,6
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Nylon-6,6 is a polyamide polymer prepared by the condensation of hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid under high
pressure and at high temperature
\( \begin{array}{lc}n \mathrm{NH}_{2}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{2}\right)_{6} \mathrm{NH}_{2} \\ \text { Hexamethylene diamine }\end{array}+n H O O C\left(C H_{2}\right){ }_{4} \mathrm{COOH} \)
