Which from following polymers is NOT obtained by addition polymerisation method?

  • A
    Teflon
  • B
    Polyacrolonitrile
  • C
    LDP
  • Correct answer
    D
    PHBV

Solution

Teflon is an addition polymer of tetrafluoroethene.

Polyacrylonitrile is an addition polymer of acrylonitrile.

LDP (Low-density polyethylene) is an addition polymer of ethene.

PHBV (Poly $\beta$-hydroxybutyrate-co-$\beta$-hydroxyvalerate) is a condensation polymer of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid and 3-hydroxypentanoic acid.

Answer: PHBV

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
