Can regrind thermoplastic and thermosetting why?
Technically, A thermoset cannot be reused since it forms a structure that does not remelt easily and remelting this material can result in degradation and molecular weight changes. A thermoplastic however can be reused when mixed with a percentage of virgin material. This is the large benefit of utilizing a thermoplastic over a thermoset.
Energy that can be used and reused an infinite number of times?
A kind of energy that can be used and reused any number of times.
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.=)

What are the two main plastics?
thermosettings and thermoplastics. A thermoplastic can be remelted and reused, a thermoset cannot.
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.
Energy that can be used and reused an infinite number of times?
A kind of energy that can be used and reused any number of times.
How is thermoplastic shaped?
it can be heatead and reshaped a multiple of times
Why Thermoplastic can be form into different shapes with infinite times?
That is the property of thermoplastics. If they could not be formed into different shapes many many times then nobody would bother to make them.
is a plastic a thermosetting or thermoplastic?
