What else can I help you with?
Is there a difference between PET and APET plastic?
There is no difference. PET is polyester, which has a chemical name of polyethylene terephtlalate. PET can be made with the polymers aligned in two primary ways; amorphous or crystalline. Virtually all of what you come in contact with is amorphous with one major exception; microwave food trays, which if made from PET are made from C-PET (crystallized PET). Virtually all clear PET including Mylar and water bottles are made from A-PET (amorphous PET). In many cases the "A" is simply left off.
What is plastic sulphur why it is elastic?
Plastic sulfur is an amorphous allotrope of sulfur; it is plastic because the structure is polymeric.
What is plastic sulphur and is it elastic?
Plastic sulfur is an amorphous allotrope of sulfur; it is plastic because the structure is polymeric.
What are some examples of amorphous solid?
glass, plastic, wax
How does plastic not let sound through?
Because Plastic is an Amorphous Solid, the particles are not arranged in a repeating pattern.
What does PET bottles mean?
PET or PETE = polyethylene terephthalate, after the plastic used to make the bottles
What is a solid that lacks orderly internal structure?
A solid that does not have an orderly internal arrangement of atoms is called an amorphous solid. An example of an amorphous solid is glass. amphorus solid its like a plastic lid or plastic wrap for cooking.
Is plastic a crystalline solid or amorphous solid?
Yes. It does not have a pattern, like wax and rubber and such.
What plastic bottles are made from?
Plastic bottles are typically made from a type of plastic known as PET (polyethylene terephthalate). PET is a lightweight, durable, and versatile plastic resin that is commonly used for food and beverage packaging due to its ability to resist degradation and be easily recycled.
Why do you think bottle are made from amorphous solids such as plastic and glass?
Bottles that are made from amorphous solids like plastic and glass for a few reasons. Some of the reasons are because it is easier to melt down and because it does not contain porous.
What is the scientific name of plastic?
The scientific name for plastic is polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is a type of polymer commonly used in bottles and containers.
PET recycling what does PET stand for?
PET stands for Polyethylene terephthalate. It's a high quality plastic resin in the polyester family. It is used widely in soft drink bottles.
