Question

Which of the following has the 1,2-ethanediol the starting material?
A.Nylon-6
B.PMMA
C.PTFF
D.Dacron

Answer 1

Hint: Starting material of each and every type of polymer are to be studied very carefully in order to come to any conclusion. The full form of PTFF is photon tether formation flight.

Complete step by step answer:
Dacron is made up of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid . It is clear that ethylene glycol is also called the 1,2-ethanediol so this condensation leads to the formation of Dacron.
Now discussing each option in little detail for knowing of which starting material they are made up of. We will now discuss how nylon-6 is formed . so we found out the when cyclohexane is reacted with hydroxyl amino in the presence of an acidic medium then a product is formed which is known as the caprolam and further leads to the formation of nylon -6 so accordingly in this ethylene glycol is not used as a starting material.
Discussing the second option we come to know that the PMMA is a material which is known to resist or we can further say that it has the high resistant capability to absorb the ultraviolet radiations and also it is a very tough and a highly transparent material. It is an ideal thing to use in making aeroplanes. It is a polymer chain.
Then further talking about the third or we can say the last option which is none other than the PTFF. So the full form of PTFF is photon tether formation flight. It is also a polymer chain which is known to be formed fluorspar and sulphuric acid and chloroform and does not use ethylene glycol as the starting material.

Note:
Dacron is basically a fibre which is usually mixed with wool in men and women suits in order to dress fabrics and also as a washable woven sportswear.
