Non-metallic diaphragm used as pressure sensor in instruments is generally made of__________________?

Correct answer: D. Synthetic rubber

  • A. Teflon
  • B. Thick paper
  • C. Bakelite
  • D. Synthetic rubber

Explanation

Synthetic rubber is flexible and can deflect under pressure, making it suitable for non-metallic diaphragms. Teflon and Bakelite are harder materials and are used where chemical resistance or rigidity is more important than flexibility.
