Which statement regarding polymers is not correct?
A
Thermosetting polymers are reusable.
B
Elastomers have polymer chains held together by weak intermolecular forces
C
Fibers possess high tensile strength.
D
Thermoplastic polymers are capable of repeatedly softening and hardening on heating and cooling respectively
Detailed Solution
Thermosetting polymers undergo extensive cross-linking on heating and cannot be softened again, so they are not reusable.
So 'Thermosetting polymers are reusable' is not correct.
