Q. Formation of nylons and polyesters are called step growth polymerisation because

Polymers

Solution:

These polycondensation reactions result in the loss of some simple molecules as water, alcohol, etc., and lead to the formation of high molecular mass condensation polymers.
let's look at the formation of nylon polymer
Nylon $6,6$ - It is prepared by the condensation polymerisation of hexamethylenediamine with adipic acid under high pressure and at high temperature with the removal of water molecules.
