THERMOPLASTIC Linear
Polypropene is a thermoplastic polymer made by the chemical industry packaging, textiles (e.g. ropes, thermal underwear and carpets), stationery, plastic parts and reusable containers of various types, laboratory equipment, loudspeakers, automotive components, and polymer banknotes.
cellulose is a linear polymer of glucose.
The term "semitelechelic" in reference to polymers may be a bit misleading. A telechelic polymer is one that has a reactive functional group. Most polymers have reactive groups on a least one end. These are monotelechelic. Linear polymers with reactive groups on both ends are ditelechelic. Branched or star-shaped polymers may be tri-, tetra-, penta-, et cetera telechelic. As I understand the nomenclature (professionally, I am a scientist working with polyethylene glycol), "semitelechelic polymer" is usually used to refer to a monotelechelic polymer.

Once 'set' these plastics cannot be reheated to soften, shape and mould.Thermosetting Plastics are made up of lines of molecules which are heavily cross linked. It creates a rigid molecular structure.They may be heated the first time and shaped but they become permanently stiff and solid.Unlike thermoplastics, they retain their strength and shape even when heated.
A thermoplastic. A hydrocarbon. A linear hydrocarbon. All of these cklassifications can be applied.
teflon is thermoplastic as it contains a linear chain and is not crosslinked..

linear polymer
Not on the macroscopic scale but microscopically the polymer is a fiber.

An amylose is the soluble form of starch which is a linear polymer of glucose.
No. A nucleic acid is a subunit of a [the] polymer.

water pipes are almost always made of a polymer PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride)... it is a linear polymer with 1-chloro ethene as its repeating unit...
