Which of the following is/are the monomers of nylon (6,6)?(a) Hexamethylenediamine(b) Adipic acid(c) Both Hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid(d) Neither Hexamethylenediamine nor adipic acidThe question was posed to me during an internship interview.The above asked question is from Materials in portion Materials of Corrosion Engineering

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (c) Both Hexamethylenediamine and adipic ACID

The best I can explain: Hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid are the two monomers of NYLON (6,6). The chemical FORMULA of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid is NH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-NH2 and HOOC-CH2-CH2-CH2-COOH respectively.
