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 is the main difference between thermosetting plastic and thermoplastic?
thermosetting plastic becomes hard when heated and deteriorates by excessive cross linking and thermoplastic becomes soft and can be moulded into any shape.
What two families of plastic are there?
thermoplastic plastics (recyclable)thermosetting plastics (non-recyclable)
What is the difference between thermosetting and thermoplastic cable?
The terms are used to categorise cable insulation according to its properties, such as its operating temperature, rather than the ingredients from which it is are made.These terms are now used by the IEE Wiring Regulations to describe insulation formerly described, for example, as 'pvc' (a 'thermoplastic' material) or rubber ( a 'thermosetting' material).
Is Teflon a thermosetting polymer?
No, Teflon is not a thermosetting polymer. It is a thermoplastic polymer. Thermosetting polymers undergo a chemical reaction to form a stable, cross-linked structure when heated, while thermoplastic polymers soften when heated and harden when cooled. Teflon belongs to the latter category.
Is Teflon thermoplastic or thermosetting plastic?
Teflon is a thermoplastic material. This means that it can be melted and reshaped multiple times without undergoing any chemical change.
Is a light switch thermoplastic or thermosetting?
Thermosetting
Is teflon a thermosetting plastic?
No, Teflon is not a thermosetting plastic. Teflon is a polymer that exhibits thermoplastic behavior, meaning it can be melted and reformed multiple times without undergoing significant chemical change. Thermosetting plastics, on the other hand, undergo a chemical reaction during the curing process that irreversibly hardens them.
