What is plastic degradation?
Plastic degradation is the degradation of plastic.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of soil stabilization?
advantages of soil stabilization by waste plastic fiber.
Why do you avoid plastics?
if you use a plastic once you will trow them on the earth'surface plastic is the things that will not decompose easily so it cause soil pollution and it affect microbes that are present in the soil such as bacteria fungi etc, which affect the soil fertility

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.
What do you mean by plastic equilibrium of soil?
state of stress with in a soil mass or a portion there of that has been deformed to such an extant that its ultimate shearing resistance is mobilized
