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.

Why the plastic handle used in the pressure cooker doesn't melt?

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

Is UHMW a thermoset plastic?

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.


What are the methods of preparation of Thermoplastics and Thermoset plastics?

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.

Does polythene have a high or a low melting point for a plastic?

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.


What has the lowest melting point water timber or plastic?

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.


What is meant by polythene is a thermo plastic?

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.
