What is plastic limit?
The mass wetness at which the soil stiffens from a plastic to a semi rigid and friable state.it is the water content at which soil begins to crumble on being rolled into thread of 3 mm diameter
Is a plastic cup a better insulator than a paper cup?
Plastic is an insulator. but most of the paper is not insulated, because the paper in general contains water, although the content is very low, but enough to pass current, but there also is a special insulation paper, that is on the special purpose. so in dry conditions, and the cup has no water, a plastic cup is a better insulator than a paper cup.
What is neustonic plastic?
Plastic that float on or near the surface of water.
In which direction does osmosis occur?
Osmois is the continual movement of water from a higher solution of water content through a semipermeable membrane into a solution of lower water content. Therefore, ososis occurs in a downward direction from higher to lower water content.
Are plastic tanks good for holding water?
Sure. There are many brands of polymer plastic water tanks out there. Here's one example: http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/parts/rv-pumps-water/plastic-water-tank.htm?source=froogle_p
Do plastic materials absorb water?
no as soon as you see the content you may not be swallowed

What is the carbon content in plastics?
Each plastic has a specific compositon.
HOW TO Differentiate moisture content from water content?
Moisture content is the amount of water absorbed by the substance due to surrounding humidity while, Water content is the amount of water present as a volatile component of a substance.
What is the water content of beef jerky?
Beef jerky has very little water content as it is dehydrated meat. The water content is usually 0.75 percent of the serving.
What foods have water content?
all food has some water content unless dehydrated.

What is the water content of onions?
Onions typically contain about 89% water by weight.
What is plastic limit in physics?
The term plastic limit speaks to the characteristics of (fine grained) soil and how it behaves with different moisture content. Let's keep it simple. If the soil is nearly saturated, it will be "very" plastic and will act like play dough. If it's dry, it crumbles. There are no plastic characteristics. Different soils (different clay, sand or whatever in their content) act a bit differently with the same moistue content. Some will still be more plastic than others with a given moisture content. That's where the lab comes in. A given soil sample will have to be experimented on to determine its plastic limit. Wikipedia has an article posted on Atterberg limits, which include this soil characteristic. As this is WikiAnswers, a link is provided.
Do plastic boats sink or float?
All plastic items float on water, so therefore a plastic boat floats on water.
Do plastic float on water?
depends if the plastic is heavier or lighter than water and if its hold air which is lighter than water
Why do foods like strawberries which have a large content of water not freeze well?
Because they DO have such a high water content.
