THERMOPLASTIC Linear
Is acrylic plastic thermosetting?
yes. it is a thermoplastic. it can be remoulded.
What are the basic properties of thermoplastic and thermosetting?
Thermoplastics can be resoftened and remoulded several times,thermosetting can be heated and moulded only once into an irriversible shape.=)
Is thermoplastic where you can remold it?
Yes. Thermoplastics are "heat-softening". Provided that you don't heat them to the point of destruction, thermoplastics can be remoulded and reused easily.
Are milk bottles thermoplasic or thermosetting plastic?
If it has the recycled number on the bottom (probably code 2 HDPE) it is definately thermoplastic. One characterisitics of thermoplastics is that they can melt and be remoulded whereas thermosetting plastics can not (they will char). Therefore, it logically follows that if it can be recycled it will be a thermoplastic polymer.
What is thermoplastic used for?
I believe that thermoplastics are used because they can be melted down again. This means they are are often used for things like bottles because they can be recycled easily compared to other plastics which cannot be remoulded. Hope this helps.

What is the temperature for reheating thermoplastics?
The term for reheating thermoplastic is known as vacuum-forming. The desirable quality for vacuum-forming is at 180 degrees Celsius. This is when it is ready to be reheated to then be reshaped or remoulded.
