Correct answer is (d) 1935

The best I can explain: Nylon, a synthetic polymer, was produced in 1935.  Nylon was developed by a research team at DuPont, headed by an American chemist, Wallace H. Carothers. It was made by the chemical synthesis of adipic acid and hexamethylrnrdiamine mainly, by condensation polymerisation.
