Which of the following polymers has ester linkage?

Options

  1. AOrlon
  2. BDacron
  3. CTeflon
  4. DNeoprene

Correct answer

B. Dacron

Step-by-step solution

Dacron (also known as polyethylene terephthalate or PET) is a condensation polymer formed by the reaction of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid. Since it is formed by the condensation of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, it contains ester linkages ( -COO- ) and is classified as a polyester. Orlon (polyacrylonitrile), Teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene), and Neoprene (polychloroprene) are addition polymers and do not contain ester linkages. Answer: Dacron
