yes
Thermosetting plastics. Once cooled and hardened, these plastics retain their shapes and cannot return to their original form. Thermosetting plastics dont melt (i think) :)
No, acetate is not a thermosetting plastic. It is a type of thermoplastic that can be heated and molded into various shapes before cooling and hardening. Thermosetting plastics, on the other hand, undergo a chemical change when heated and cannot be reshaped once they have hardened.
Two common plastic groups used for heat and moulding plastics are thermoplastics, which can be melted and remoulded multiple times through heating and cooling processes, and thermosetting plastics, which undergo a chemical change during moulding and cannot be remelted or reshaped after the initial moulding process.
Yes, Formica is a type of thermosetting plastic. Thermosetting plastics are materials that undergo a chemical reaction to form a rigid structure that cannot be softened or reshaped by heat once it has cured. Formica is commonly used as a laminate material for countertops and other surfaces.
No, Teflon is not a thermosetting plastic. Teflon is a polymer that exhibits thermoplastic behavior, meaning it can be melted and reformed multiple times without undergoing significant chemical change. Thermosetting plastics, on the other hand, undergo a chemical reaction during the curing process that irreversibly hardens them.
yes wire coating is an example of thermosetting plastics!!!!
the opposite to thermosetting plastic is thermoplastic
Plastics which once moulded into a shape do not become soft on heating and cannot be moulded again are called thermosetting plastics.
thermoplastic plastics (recyclable)thermosetting plastics (non-recyclable)
mostly thermosetting plastics like bakelite

Thermosetting plastics
Thermoplastics are the only ones that can be recycled. Thermosets cannot be recycled.
By properties they are Thermosetting plastics and Thermoplastics
Bakelite Epoxy Duroplast

i think the answers you are looking for are thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics :)
