Match List - I with List - II.
| List-I (Polymer) | List-II (Used in) |
|---|---|
| A Bakelite | I Radio and television cabinets |
| B Glyptal | II Electrical switches |
| C PVC | III Paints and Lacquers |
| D Polystyrene | IV Water pipes |
Let us match each polymer with its correct application.
A. Bakelite → II (Electrical switches)
Bakelite is a thermosetting polymer (phenol-formaldehyde resin) with high heat resistance and electrical insulation properties. It is widely used for making electrical switches, plugs, and handles of utensils.
B. Glyptal → III (Paints and Lacquers)
Glyptal is a polyester resin made from ethylene glycol and phthalic acid. It is primarily used in making paints, lacquers, and surface coatings due to its good adhesion and film-forming properties.
C. PVC → IV (Water pipes)
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a versatile thermoplastic polymer. It is extensively used for making water pipes, raincoats, and vinyl flooring due to its durability, chemical resistance, and low cost.
D. Polystyrene → I (Radio and television cabinets)
Polystyrene is a rigid thermoplastic polymer used for making radio and television cabinets, toys, and packaging materials due to its good insulating properties and ease of moulding.
The correct matching is: A-(II), B-(III), C-(IV), D-(I)
Hence, the correct answer is Option B.
