Is cheese plastic?
No, only fake cheese is plastic.
Which keeps things colder plastic wrap or aluminum foil data?
It would definitely have to be plastic wrap because plastic wrap is an insulator, which aluminum is not.
What all does it cost to manufacture a plastic bottle?
how much does it cost for a plastic water bottle
Why didn't the Romans use plastic for their water pipes?
Plastic was not invented during that time period.
Can bottled Poland Spring water be refilled?
You should not. Why? Because the plastic will breakdown and eventually you will be drinking plastic.
How can bottles be changed into new plastic objects by using thermosoftening plastic?
by recycling it and taking it to a factory
What is the difference between thermosoftening and thermosetting?
Thermosoftening is when the bonds between molecules in a plastic are weak so that the plastic can easily soften. Thermosetting is when the bonds are strong so that the plastic can only be softened once and when it is, that is the only time that you can shape it.
What is the opposite of thermosoftening?
Thermosetting, these plastics are rigid, resistant to higher temperatures compared with thermoplastics and once set, a thermosetting plastic cannot be remoulded.
Types of thermosoftening plastics?
Thermosoftening plastics soften and can be given any shape when hot. The different types thermosoftening plastics are Polyethylene, Polystyrene, Poly Vinyl Chloride, ABS plastics.
How do you find the melting point of plastic?
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).
What are the advantages of thermosoftening?
Thermosoftening plastics can be easily molded and reshaped when heated, making them versatile for various applications. They are also generally cheaper to produce compared to thermosetting plastics. Additionally, thermosoftening plastics tend to have better impact resistance and toughness.
What is an example of thermoset plastic?
Any plastic that if you put a flame to it , it will char/ burn/go black. NB A thermosoftening plastic is one , if heted, will just change shape. As a 'rule of thumb' opaque plastics are thermosetting; clear plastics are thermosoftening.
What are thermosettings and therosoftening polymers?
Polymers are plastic. Thermosoftening is hard when it is cold and flexible when it is warm. Thermosetting is flexible when cold and hard when hotThermosetting plastics are polymers that, once heated, melted and moulded, cannot be re-moulded as the bond between their molecules are too strong. Thermosoftening plastics are polymers which can be re-moulded many times as the bonds between the molecules are very weak. Thermosetting plastics can only be shaped once. Thermosoftening plastics can be shaped and re-shaped many times. :) hope this is helpful x
Why do thermosoftening plastics soften when heated?
Thermosoftening plastics are plastics that when heated, the polymers turn into a gooey kind of material which can then be put into a mould of whatever shape you wish the plastic to be. when it sets, you have your shaped plastic. thermosoftening plastics can be reheated and remoulded whereas thermosetting plastics cant be as the polymers for them, once moulded, cannot go gooey again because they have stronger chains between the polymers.
What holds together thermosoftening plastics?
Thermosoftening plastics are held together by weak intermolecular forces that allow the polymer chains to slide past each other, making the material soft and malleable. When heated, these forces weaken further, allowing the polymer chains to move more freely, resulting in the plastic becoming molten and easily molded into different shapes.
What are the uses of thermosoftening polymers?
Thermosoftening polymers are used in a wide range of applications such as packaging materials, textiles, toys, and medical devices. They can be easily molded into different shapes when heated and can be recycled by melting and reshaping, making them versatile materials for various industries.
