Nylon-6 is manufactured from _______________?
Correct answer: A. Caprolactam
- A. Caprolactam
- B. Adipic acid and Hexamethylenediamine
- C. Maleic anhydride and Hexamethylenediamine
- D. Sebacic acid and Hexamethylenediamine
Explanation
Nylon-6 is produced by ring-opening polymerisation of caprolactam, a cyclic amide. Adipic acid with hexamethylenediamine instead produces nylon-6,6.
