Which of the following is an elastomer?
Which of the following is an elastomer?
- A. Vulcanized rubber
- B. Dacron
- C. Polystyrene
- D. Melamine
Step-by-step solution
Vulcanized rubber is a cross-linked polymer that exhibits elastic properties, making it an elastomer. Dacron is a polyester fiber, polystyrene is a rigid thermoplastic, and melamine is a thermosetting plastic; none are elastomers.
