thermoplastic
Yes. The Rubik's Cube is made of ABS plastic, a common thermoplastic.
Compact discs are made from polycarbonate which is one form of thermoplastic. Consider thermoplastic is a superset which contains various forms of polymers and polycarbonate is just one of them. So the statement compact disc is made from thermoplastic is true. But to be more specific compact disc is made from polycarbonate.Refer to the article on for more detail on the material used in making compact discs.
There are hundreds of things that can be made from thermoplastic. Thermoplastic is plastic molded at a certain temperature, then cooled and it becomes a very hard, solid object when cooled. Signs, logos, and even medical equipment can be made by thermoplastic.
To insulate : To keep warm things warm and cold things cold
it is made out of thermoplastic
thermoplastic
A Thermoplastic can be used for several things that require a certain temperature. For example one use of a thermoplastic could be to see the temperature of a liquid in a mug. Another use of thermoplastic could be used in the storage of foods to check what temperature it is being kept at.

Many things are made out of "Non Thermoplastics", which are called Thermosetting Polymers. Basically there are two kinds of Plastics: Thermoplastic, which are heated and injected under pressure into molds to create new items. These are plastics that get soft when heated. And Thermosetting Polymers that are resins that are either combined with a substrate or used alone, then poured into a mold, then subjected to heat and pressure to create items or sheets. These are plastics that get hard when heated. Things that are made from Thermosetting Polymers (Non thermoplastic): sheets of fiberglass and phenolic out of which circuit board found in computers are made from, knobs, wheels, etc.
