Why are plasticisers added to polymers?
Plasticisers are added to polymers to enhance their flexibility, workability, and durability. They reduce the glass transition temperature of the polymer, making it softer and more pliable, which is crucial for applications like flexible plastics and coatings. Additionally, plasticisers can improve the processing characteristics of the polymer, allowing for easier shaping and molding during manufacturing.
How are plasticisers made?
Plasticisers are products of the chemical industry; each plasticiser has a specific receipt and a specific technology of preparation. See also the link below.
What should be done with non-biodegradable polymers to reduce their effect on the environment?
recycle them
What are plasticisers?
They're chemicals that makes plastic and rubbery stuff soft and flexible.

What is a plastic bumper?
in old cars bumpers was made of steels and other heavy metal materials nowadays polymer composites are use in this field because of their Strength and Lightness TPOs( thermoplastic olefins) are good example for this case at the other hand, the importance of polymers is their "memory effect" we can call this effect "the polymers Secret of success" polymers have memory like a Spring after an accident, when the impact makes bumpers deformed, the plastic bumpers can return to their previous shape memory effect and lightness is just two of the benefits that will convinced us to Farewell with metal bumpers
What is meant by water soluble polymers?
Water soluble polymers are polymers that will dissolve in water.
A large molecule synthesized from many monomers is called a what?
they are called polymers
What are the polymers that are produced in factories called?
Polymers.
What are the polymers of carbohydrate's?
The polymers of carbohydrates are polysaccharide.
What are the sustained release polymers?
Some examples of sustained release polymers include ethylcellulose, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). These polymers are designed to release drugs or active ingredients slowly and steadily over an extended period of time, providing a longer duration of therapeutic effect.
