It is very possible that the plastic urn will leach BPA's. There is currently huge concerns in the USA over plastic feeding bottles leaching BPA's when heated, it is claimed that the leaching rises 55 times it normal levels when heated.
Heating water in a plastic urn may lead to the leaching of BPA if the plastic is not BPA-free. The extent of leaching will depend on factors like temperature and duration of heating. It is always safer to choose BPA-free containers for heating food and beverages.
Plastic is a good insulator of heat, meaning heat can't flow through it very well. So a plastic handle on a kettle doesn't conduct heat through it and this means you don't get burnt when handling it.
My kettle is metal so i dont know what you are talking about. I hope that helped! if it didnt, what does help you is to let you know that most kettles are made of metal and not plastic. :)
The 'Polyput' kettle was available in the mid 60s; -I had one. It had a bulbous cream coloured body. and the whistle fitted in a lid at the end of the wide spout; For filling there was a button on the handle which opened this lid
When a kettle is boiling you are able to see the chemical reaction, from the stem leaving the kettle.
To clean calcium from a kettle, mix equal parts of water and vinegar and let it sit in the kettle for a few hours. Then, scrub the inside of the kettle with a brush or sponge to remove the buildup. Rinse the kettle thoroughly before using it again.

How do I get rid of the taist I get from a new plastic kettle?
Yes, because the kettle will melt. but you can get plastic kettles that are safe to boil your water in. so when it shows signs of melting that means you have to replace it

Most plastic do not conduct heat very well, This makes it ideal for handles on pans which makes it Thermoset.

Very - probably well over 90%. An electric kettle is very efficient, especially if the body is made from plastic rather than metal; almost all of the electrical energy used goes into heating the contents rather than the container. A metal bodied kettle used on a gas stove would be significantly less efficient.
i dont know man ask your bleady teacher lolor go on awnser.com geek!
A piece of plastic over a boiling kettle will collect the steam (evaporated water) and it will condense.
no. it means that the kettle can be unplugged from the electricity source. the heating source is in touch with water, as it is located inside the kettle :)
