Explanation:

Nylon 6 is only made from one kind of monomer, a monomer called caprolactam. Caprolactam has 6 carbons, hence 'Nylon 6'.

During polymerization, the amide bond within each caprolactam molecule is broken, with the active groups on each side re-forming two new bonds as the monomer becomes part of the polymer backbone.

And

Nylon 6,6 is synthesized by polycondensation of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid.

Removing water drives the reaction toward polymerization through the formation of amide bonds from the acid and amine functions.
