A polymer is termed as an 'elastomer', if its percentage elongation is more than 100%. An elastomer is termed as 'rubber' if its percentage elongation is more than _______________ percent ?

Correct answer: B. 200

  • A. 150
  • B. 200
  • C. 300
  • D. 400

Explanation

Rubber is commonly distinguished from the broader class of elastomers by an elongation exceeding about 200%, while elastomers are generally defined at a lower threshold such as 100%. Thus the expected value is 200%.
