The main use of butadiene is____________________?
Correct answer: D. In the manufacture of synthetic rubber
- A. As a plasticiser for unsaturated polyester
- B. None of these
- C. As an anti-skimming agent in paint
- D. In the manufacture of synthetic rubber
Explanation
Butadiene contains a conjugated diene system that readily polymerises to produce synthetic rubbers such as polybutadiene and Buna-type rubbers. Its principal industrial use is therefore synthetic-rubber manufacture.
