Polymers are plastic. Thermosoftening is hard when it is cold and flexible when it is warm. Thermosetting is flexible when cold and hard when hot
Thermosetting 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
What else can I help you with?
Is acrylic a themosetting?
Some acrylic resins are thermoplastic and other are thermosettings.
What are the two main plastics?
thermosettings and thermoplastics. A thermoplastic can be remelted and reused, a thermoset cannot.
A large molecule synthesized from many monomers is called a what?
they are called polymers
What are the polymers that are produced in factories called?
Polymers.
What are large molecules made up of smaller molecules?
The answer is polymer. Could also be referring to Macromolecule
Why are thermoplastics and thermosettings different?
there r differenrt cos they r

Classification of conducting polymers?
polymers are classified into 5 types as follows: A))based on synthesis: 1)addition polymers 2)condensation polymers B))based on inter molecular forces: 1)fibers 2)elastromers 3)thermoplastics 4)thermosettings C))from source 1)natural polymers 2)synthetic polymers D))based on material 1)organic polymer 2)inorganic polymer E))based on structure 1)linear polymer 2)branched polymer 3)cross linked polymer F))based on the monomer 1)homo polymer 2)hetero polymer
What is meant by water soluble polymers?
Water soluble polymers are polymers that will dissolve in water.

What are the polymers of carbohydrate's?
The polymers of carbohydrates are polysaccharide.
What are large molecules made up of smaller molecules?
The answer is polymer. Could also be referring to Macromolecule
Why are synthetic polymers often used in place of natural material?
Synthetic polymers are cheaper than natural polymers. Natural polymers are also less plentiful.
Does protein has polymers with many subunits?
Proteins are not polymers.
Are compounds that have repeating subunits?
Yes, these are the polymers.
