MCQ
Which of the following does not uses formaldehyde in its preparation?
- AMelamine polymer
- BBakelite
- ✓$\text{PHBV}$
- DPreservation of biological specimens.
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\text{PHBV}$
Formaldehyde is not used in the preparation of $\text{PHBV. PHBV}$ is a thermoplastic polymer. The monomers$, 3-$hydroxybutanoic acid and $3-$hydroxypentanoic acid, are joined by ester bonds; the back bone of the polymer is made up of carbon and oxygen atoms.
