What is Plastics
What is Plastics Plastics is a synthetic material made from a wide range of organic polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, nylon, etc., that can be molded into shape while soft, and then set into a rigid or slightly elastic form. In other words, Plastics are Macromolecular structured Polymer (Polymer is made up of many repeating simple chemical units, known as Monomer.). We can say, All plastics are Polymers, but all polymers are not Plastics, they may be Fibers, Elastomers (rubbers) or adhesives. In simple words plastic is one of the family member of polymers. ADVANTAGES OF USING PLASTICS • Wider design freedom • Light in weight • Higher strength to weight ratio • Corrosion Resistant. • Easy Process ability. • Low Energy Required for Manufacturing • Minimum post finishing required • Low creep • Wide color range • Better aesthetics ...
