Select correct statement  for thermoplastic polymer


A) It does not become soft on heating under pressure

B) It cannot be remoulded

C) It is either linear or branched chain polymer

D) It is a cross -linked polymer

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Thermoplastic polymers are linear or slightly branched polymers in which the intermolecular focus of attraction are intermediate between elastomers and fibres. These polymers soften on heating and become rigid on cooling. The process of softening, moulding and cooling can be repeated as often as desired. It is  not a cross-linked polymer
