Is UHMW a thermoset plastic?
UHMW stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight. Now it depends what the monomer is. UHMWPE would be thermoplastic not thermoset. But other UHMW polymers can be thermoset. It depends.
How does thermoplastic material differ from a thermosetting material?
Thermoplastic and thermoset materials both fall under the broad category of Polymers. The biggest difference between a thermoplastic and thermoset is that a thermoplastic can be recycled. Whereas a thermoset irreversibly cure. Thermoplastic: PE, PP, PVC. Thermoset: Bakelite, Epoxy.

What is the cost of Thermosetting plastic?
that depends on the thermoset plastic. some are cheaper then others. Determine the thermoset you need then there are a few plastic wholesalers who can narrow down the cost for you.
Is a plastic beaker a thermoset?
i think its a thermoplastic I'm not too shore but when its heated it melts so yeah i guess so :)
