      Question

      Which of the following is made to heat tetrafluoroethene

      on high pressure with free radical or percussive catalyst?
      A Polyester Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Nylon 6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Teflon Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Nylon 6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), commonly known as Teflon , is made by heating tetrafluoroethylene under high pressure with a free radical initiator or a peroxide catalyst. This process involves polymerization, where the monomers (tetrafluoroethylene) are converted into a polymer (PTFE) using these catalysts to initiate and propagate the reaction.
