NEETChemistryPolymers
Which is the correct definition of thermoplastic polymer with an example?
Options
- AThermoplastic polymers are highly heat-resistant materials that do not melt under normal conditions like styre
- BThermoplastic polymers are materials that permanently deform when subjected to high temperatures like Nylon 6.
- CThermoplastic polymers are capable of repeatedly softening on heating and hardening on cooling like polyethene
- DThermoplastic polymers are polymers that become brittle at low temperatures like glyptal.
Correct answer
C. Thermoplastic polymers are capable of repeatedly softening on heating and hardening on cooling like polyethene
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Thermoplastic polymers are capable of repeatedly softening on heating and hardening on cooling like polyethene.
