Polymerisation of vinyl cyanide with peroxide catalyst forms _______

a) PVC

b) PAN

c) PET

d) HDP

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer : b) PAN

Explanation :

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is a polymerised product of acrylonitrile (vinyl cyanide) in the presence of a peroxide (H2O2) catalyst.

Acrylonitrile   -------->  PAN

Vinyl cyanide can be prepared by treating ethyne with HCN in the presence of Ba(CN)2 catalyst.

C2H2 + HCN  -----> Vinyl cyanide 

PAN is used for making orlon and acrilan. PAN is chemically inert.


b) PAN
