The melting point of thermoplastics depends on the particular type of thermoplastics. The melting point varies from 160 Degrees Celsius to 350 Degrees Celsius for engineering thermoplastics. When it comes to high temperature thermoplastics, the melting point varies from 3593 to 4010 Degrees Celsius.
Thermoplastic operations involve blowing a heated plastic into a mold. The end product is hollow. Thermoset plastics are sheets of plastic heated and place over two parts of a mold that come together. The end result is not hollow.
Thermosetting
Urea-formaldehyde is a thermoset plastic. Once it is cured, it undergoes a chemical reaction that permanently sets its shape, making it hard and durable. Thermoset plastics cannot be reshaped or melted once they are formed.
The term defined as the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid state is called the melting point.
There are rtwo ypes of 'Plastic'. Thermosetting and Thermosoftening. Thermosetting if heated will just char (go black) Thermosoftening is heated will alter its shape. Different Thermosoftening plastics have different temperatures at which they soften. A Casual way to tell the difference is that thermosetting plastics are generally opaque, and thermosofteneing plastics a generally clear(see -through).
there are two types of Plastics. the Thermoset and the Thermoplast. these Plastics all Melt, but @ different temperatures. the Thermoplast melts easily and can be recycled, while the thermoset has a property that makes it difficult to melt @ the temperature of the cooker that is being heated.this therefore explains why the Plastice does not melt because its thermoset Plastic and It has a higher temperature
no
The answer is thermoset :)

UHMW stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight. Now it depends what the monomer is. UHMWPE would be thermoplastic not thermoset. But other UHMW polymers can be thermoset. It depends.

i think its a thermoplastic I'm not too shore but when its heated it melts so yeah i guess so :)
Thermosetting
Tungsten is a metal with a particularly high melting point (which has made it suitable for use as a filament in incandescent bulbs); ionic compounds such as granite have high melting points. Ceramics have high melting points.
Of the three options, plastic has the lowest melting point. Different types of plastics have varying melting points, but in general, they melt at lower temperatures compared to both water and timber.
Thermoplastics become less viscous or melt when heated. such plastics may be recycled that means may be moulded into another shape on melting. Thermoset plastics do not - for instance melamine.
