Which of the following groups contain only synthetic fibres? |
Nylon, Terylene, Wool Cotton, Polycot, Rayon PVC, Polythene, Bakelite Acrylic, Silk, Wool |
PVC, Polythene, Bakelite |
The correct answer is option 3. PVC, Polythene, Bakelite. Out of the following groups, only PVC, Polythene, and Bakelite contain only synthetic fibers: Nylon, Terylene, Wool: Nylon and Terylene are synthetic fibers, but Wool is a natural fiber derived from sheep. Cotton, Polycot, Rayon: Cotton is a natural fiber, while Polycot is a blend of cotton and polyester (synthetic) fibers, and Rayon is a semi-synthetic fiber made from cellulose (natural) but processed to alter its properties. PVC, Polythene, Bakelite: All three - PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Polythene (Polyethylene), and Bakelite - are synthetic polymers. Acrylic, Silk, Wool: Acrylic is a synthetic fiber, but Silk is a natural protein fiber produced by silkworms, and Wool, as mentioned earlier, is also a natural fiber. |
