Formation of terylene is an example of:
condensation polymerisation
addition polymerisation
esterification
saponification
A.
condensation polymerisation
In condensation polymerisation, monomers polymerise to form polymer along with loss of small molecules.
Terylene or dacron is condensation polymer. It is formed by condensation of terephthalic acid with ethylene glycol along with loss of water molecule.
