Most are- but bioplastics exist. Very interesting development as we won't have oil forever. See link.
No because crude oil does get to the surface so there are bugs that destroy it.
Plastics can be recycled over and over, whether they are made from crude fossil fuel oil, or renewable vegetable oil. So in this sense they are sustainable. The earth has a limited supply of crude oil, but when that runs out there will still be some fossil fuel plastics to be recycled.
Approximately 4-8% of the world's crude oil is used to produce plastics. This percentage can vary based on factors such as oil demand, production methods, and the specific types of plastics being manufactured. The majority of crude oil is primarily used for fuel and energy production. As the demand for sustainable alternatives grows, the reliance on crude oil for plastic production may change in the future.
Synthetic rubber is made from molecules generated during the process of refining crude oil or natural gas liquids. Natural rubber is derived from rubber trees and is not derived from oil.
gasoline,diesal,motor oil,karosene,butane,asphalt,tar.grease,propane and plastics(there are hundreds of types like pvc)
Many plastics are derived from crude oil.
Yes mineral oil is derived from crude oil. ---- No. Mineral oil is another term for vegetable oil, which is derived from the natural oils of plants, not crude.
It's not that what they make plastics with.
No because soyabean oil is derived from soyabeans while crude oil is derived from fossil fuels.
No because crude oil does get to the surface so there are bugs that destroy it.

Petrochemicals are generally derived from crude oil, a fossil fuel. Crude oil is refined through various processes to produce petrochemicals that are used to make a wide range of products such as plastics, fertilizers, and pharmaceuticals.
It is derived from crude oil.
All plastics are a by product of crude oil.
yes using phenol, a compound that is derived from crude oil.
Crude oil.
Polymers are not made into crude oil. Crude oil is composed of a mixture of hydrocarbons that are naturally occurring in the earth's crust. However, polymers can be derived from crude oil through a process called polymerization, where small molecular units (monomers) derived from crude oil are chemically bonded together to form long chains known as polymers.
