Acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene are a kind of:
Acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene are a kind of:
- A. addition polymer
- B. co-polymer
- C. homopolymer
- D. thermosetting polymer
Step-by-step solution
Acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene are three different monomers that undergo addition polymerization to form ABS plastic, which is a copolymer (specifically a terpolymer). It is not a homopolymer (made from one monomer), not a thermosetting polymer (it is thermoplastic), and while it is an addition polymer, the most specific classification is as a copolymer. Therefore, option B is correct.
