Question

The monomers of nylon-6, $6(X)$ and terylene $(Y)$ are

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Nylon-6,6 (nylon-6,6) is a type of polyamide. Nylon-6, 6 is formed by the condensation of two monomers containing $6$ carbon atoms. Hexamethylenediammine and adipic acid.



Dacron (terylene) is obtained by the condensation polymerisation of ethylene glycol $(1,2,-$ ethane diol) and dimethyl terephthalate.
