The important monomer of acrylic resins is

Correct answer: C. Methyl methacrylate

  • A. Vinyl chloride
  • B. Styrene
  • C. Methyl methacrylate
  • D. Hexamethylenediamine

Explanation

The correct answer is Methyl methacrylate, as it is the monomer used to create acrylic resins. These resins are known for their transparency and resistance to impact, which makes them useful in a variety of applications. The other options are incorrect because they are monomers for different types of polymers. Vinyl chloride is used for PVC, styrene for polystyrene, and hexamethylenediamine for nylon.
