Question:medium

The characteristic that deteriorates when more styrene is added to butadiene to get SBR during polymerization is:

Show Hint

Balance styrene content to optimize properties like resilience and strength in SBR.

  • Resilience
  • Strength
  • Elongation
  • Freezing point
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Increased styrene content in Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR) reduces resilience, as the material becomes harder and less elastic. While this modification can enhance strength, it compromises elastic recovery.
