Some examples: - plastics have a very low density - plastics are not corroded - platics are easily machined - plastics are non-corrodable
Name 3 types of natural plastic?
Cellulose: Found in plant cell walls, it is the most abundant natural polymer. Chitin: Found in the exoskeletons of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi, it is a versatile natural polymer. Casein: A protein found in milk that can be used to create biodegradable plastics.
What are some examples for thermosetting plastics which are used in electric sockets?
A wellknown example is bakelite.
What was plastic before it was plastic?
Plastics are usually derived from petroleum or natural gas.
What are the examples of natural fibers?
Examples of natural fibers include cotton, wool, silk, jute, and hemp. These fibers are sourced from plants and animals, making them biodegradable and environmentally friendly.

Which of these is not an example of natural resources?
which of these natural resources is not being renewed
Is plastics a natural resource?
Yes
What is biodegradable plastic?
Biodegradable plastics are plastic materials that degrade through the natural process of living organisms into humus, gas, water or other basic elemental materials. Non-biodegradable plastics are any plastics that either do not break down at all or plastics that require mechanical or chemical breakdown. PLA and oxodegradable plastics are examples of non-biodegradable plastics. PHA and ENSO plastics are examples of biodegradable plastics.
Are plastics a renewable natural resource?
No. Plastics are mostly made from fossil fuel oil, so they're not renewable and they're not natural either, but man-made.
What type of plastic are amber and latex?
Natural plastics
Examples of the significance of organic chemistry?
Medicine, Polymers & Plastics
What are the uses of plastics in the field of medicines?
Plastics have many applications in medicine. Some examples are IV Tubes, Prostectics, and Instruments.
What objects are made out of thermo plastics?
Examples of thermosetting plastics (or just thermosets) include amino, epoxy, and phenolic and unsaturated polyesters.
Plastics that can be broken down by microorganisms and what are described as?
Plastics that can be broken down by microorganisms are known as biodegradable plastics. These types of plastics can be decomposed into natural elements like water, carbon dioxide, and biomass by bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms, helping to reduce their impact on the environment.
What are some of the examples of molded plastics?
Molded plastics is a huge business. Some examples of molded plastics include piping that carries water and sewage when constructing houses, housing for electrical goods such as DVD players and television sets and even parts for aeroplanes making them more fuel efficient.
Can you provide some examples of PET plastics and their uses?
Some examples of PET plastics include water bottles, soda bottles, food containers, and polyester clothing. These plastics are commonly used for packaging beverages, food, and personal care products due to their lightweight, durable, and recyclable properties.
