SBR is produced by the copolymerisation of butadiene & styrene by employing emulsion polymerisation. The weight ratio of styrene and butadiene is maintained at_________________?

Correct answer: A. 1: 3

  • A. 1: 3
  • B. 3 : 1
  • C. 1 : 2
  • D. 2 : 1

Explanation

SBR typically contains about 25% styrene and 75% butadiene by weight, giving a styrene-to-butadiene ratio of 1:3. The butadiene fraction provides rubbery elasticity, while styrene improves strength.
