Single Choice

Which of the following statements is not true?

AChain growth polymerisation involves homopolymerisation only
BChain growth polymerisation includes both homopolymerisation and copolymerisation
Correct Answer
CNylon $$6$$ is an example of step-growth polymerisation
DStep growth polymerisation requires a bifunctional monomer

Solution

Chain growth polymerisation (or addition polymerisation) involves homopolymerisation only. Examples of such polymers include polythene, orlon and Teflon.

Thus the statement in option B is not true

Hence, the correct option is $$B$$
