Obviously, not all saucepans have plastic handles, but most saucepans have insulating handles - wood is another common material - so that they can be safely picked up when the rest of the saucepan is hot.
Plastic conducts heat poorly, and it's waterproof. A plastic saucepan handle will allow the cook to hold the handle without using a potholder, and the pan can be washed in a dishwasher.
The black plastic used in plastic handles are a thermosetting plastic, typically Bakelite. Many other types of plastic, called thermoplastics will wilt and deform on heating.
It prevents the conduction of heat or even conduction of electric current shock in electric saucepan.
The handle is made out of plastic.
Raw materials for a saucepan: For the bottom you would use copper For the handle you would use plastic as it does not conduct heat And im not sure for the rest of them!!
it Is Made Out Of Plastic
It is made an plastic
A copper bottomed pan conducts heat much better and more evenly than steel or aluminum and a plastic handle does not; making it nice and cool to handle.
That is the correct spelling of "saucepan" (a cooking pot, usually with a handle).
Typically, saucepans are made with a heat-resistant plastic handle, because metal handles conduct heat, making it easier to get burned if the cook isn't careful.
Plastic and wood are both poor conductors of heat, inexpensive and non-toxic.
