Question

The fiber developed in New York and London simultaneously?
A.Nylon
B.Teflon
C.Rayon
D.Silk

Answer 1

Hint: Silk is mainly used in the clothing industry. Teflon is usually used to create nonstick nonreactive surfaces. Raylon displays some of the properties similar to that of nylon. It has a silky texture and can be dyed into various colors. A thermoplastic material that can be molded into any shape is nylon.

Complete step by step solution:
In the early a fiber may be simultaneously discovered in both the places New York and London. The fiber is Nylon, it gets its name from the places it was discovered in New York, and London. Raylon, Teflon, and silk are made out of natural materials. Nylon is a complete man-made fiber. it can replace silk at the time, maximum light can be passed through the nylon fiber. Nylon can be further synthesized into Nylon - $6$and Nylon - $66$. They are produced by the process of polymerization. We can make yarn, cordage, or fabric from nylon and it is resistant to heat or wear and tear. Nylon can be molded into various shapes and sizes. It is widely used in injection molding because it can reach difficult corners and form intricate shapes because of its low viscosity. The chemical formula of nylon is (${C_{12}}{H_{22}}{N_2}{O_2}$)$_n$
Answer : (A) Nylon

Note :
When nylon is cooled it becomes hard and elastic and strong. It is used to make parachutes, hosiery, bristles, etc. The main ingredients used to synthesize nylon are adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine
