Is the plastic ruler thermo or thermo setting?

Thermoplastics can be shaped easily by being cooled and heated time and time again. They suffer little degration by the heating and cooling. They are solid at room temp. Thermoset on the other hand cannot be repeatedly heated and cooled. if you try to re heat they become chared and do not re soften.

What is Thermal setting plastic?

Thermal setting plastic is a type of plastic that can be permanently shaped and hardened through the application of heat. Once heated and formed into a desired shape, thermal setting plastics cannot be reshaped again, unlike thermoplastics which can be melted and reshaped multiple times. Examples of thermal setting plastics include epoxy resins and phenolic resins.

What is thermoplastc?

A thermoplastic (sometimes written as thermo plastic) is a type of plastic made from polymer resins that becomes a homogenized liquid when heated and hard when cooled. When frozen, however, a thermoplastic becomes glass-like and subject to fracture. These characteristics, which lend the material its name, are reversible. That is, it can be reheated, reshaped, and frozen repeatedly. This quality also makes thermoplastics recyclable.
