Garbage bags are flexible due to them being made from specially structured hydrocarbons known as polyethene or (polythene) as we call it. In certain cases plasticisers can also be added to a material to make it more flexible. NOTE: Polyethene is a large polymer which is a long giant lattice of small individual monomers.
