'Terylene is not a

  • copolymer

  • polyester fibre

  • chain growth polymer

  • step growth polymer


C.

chain growth polymer

Terylene is a copolymer of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. It is a polyester fibre.

Since, it is a product of condensation polymerisation, in which molecular mass of polymer is not a whole number of monomer (due to loss of H2O molecules), so it is also called step growth polymer.
