Q149 / 200 · MHT CET - Medical 2026 (24 April Shift 1) · Chemistry

Which one of the following polymers is NOT obtained by condensation polymerisation?

  • A
    Nylon 6,6
  • Correct answer
    B
    Buna-N
  • C
    Bakelite
  • D
    Terylene

Solution

Buna-N is an addition polymer formed by the copolymerisation of $1,3$-butadiene and acrylonitrile.

Nylon $6,6$ is a condensation polymer of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid.

Bakelite is a condensation polymer of phenol and formaldehyde.

Terylene is a condensation polymer of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid.

Answer: Buna-N

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