The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Identifying Each Polymer - Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) \( \text{[--CH}_2\text{--CF}_2\text{--]}_n \) → Used in gaskets, as it is resistant to chemicals and heat. - Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) \( \text{[--CH}_2\text{--CH--]}_n \text{CN} \) → Used in commercial fibres like synthetic textiles. - Epoxy resins \( \text{[--OCH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{O--]}_n \text{--C--} \text{--O--} \) → Used in safety helmets for their impact resistance. - Polyurethane \( \text{[--NHCONHCH}_2\text{--]}_n \) → Used in laminated sheets due to flexibility and strength. Conclusion Thus, the correct answer is: \[ A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III \]
