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.

Is a ruler a conductor of electricity?
Plastic is generally used as an insulator. A plastic ruler would not be a conductor of electricity.
Which is more accurate a plastic ruler or a steel ruler?
Accuracy has more to do with the measurement lines on the ruler than the material. In terms of making measurements , however, a steel ruler has several advantages to a plastic ruler of the same accuracy. For starters, steel rulers are often thinner than plastic rulers, positioning the measurement lines closer to the paper. As well as this, many steel rulers feature a backing made of a gripping material such as cork, which keeps the ruler firmly planted while drawing lines and making measurements. Lastly, the measurement lines on steel rulers are frequently embedded into the metal, whereas plastic rulers tend to have the lines painted on. After a while, these marks can be worn away, reducing the accuracy and readability of a plastic ruler.
Is a kitchen worktop a thermo plastic?
No, a kitchen worktop is typically made of materials like granite, quartz, wood, or laminate, which are not thermoplastics. Thermoplastics are a type of plastic that can be melted and reshaped multiple times.
What happens while bending plastic ruler?
When we bend a plastic ruler........ it bends in a specific plane in which the value of ots flexural rigidity is less i.e. in a plane where its moment of inertia is less............... it forms a deflection curve, the upper part goes into compression and the lower part into tension keeping a specific fibre called the neutral fibre the same in length. Also Bending stresses are developed which oppose the bending of the ruler. This phenomenon is based on the theory of bending of beams under the scope of strength of materials

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 are the two types of plastic that start with thermo?

Can you re-use thermoplastic?
Basically there are two types of thermoplastic, thermoset and thermoform. Thermoset becomes hard when heated an example would be Bakelite. A thermoform plastic gets soft when heated and can be reformed. An example would be abs such as used in plastic pipe. Gil
