Which from following is a thermosetting polymer?

Options

  1. ABuna-S
  2. BDacron
  3. CPolyvinyls
  4. DBakelite

Correct answer

A. Buna-S

Step-by-step solution

Thermosetting polymers undergo irreversible cross-linking upon heating, forming rigid, infusible structures. Analyzing the options: Buna-S is a synthetic rubber copolymer exhibiting thermoplastic behavior. Dacron (polyethylene terephthalate) and polyvinyls like PVC are also thermoplastic polymers. Bakelite, a phenol-formaldehyde resin, forms extensive cross-links during curing and cannot be reshaped after polymerization, confirming its thermosetting nature. The thermosetting polymer is therefore D .
