The principal feedstock is crude oil (petroleum).
Crude oil
"Crude oil" is "oil" - petroleum. Plastics such as polyethylene (food containers) and polystyrene(general plastics and styrofoam) are made from fractions of crude oil. Polycarbonate plastics are made indirectly through the production of phosgene and its use to make acetone and bisphenol-A.
no, plastic is made out of oils usually petroleum.
Crude petroleum is mainly classified into three categories based on its density and sulfur content: light, medium, and heavy crude. Light crude has a low density and high API gravity, making it easier to refine, while heavy crude has a high density and lower API gravity, requiring more complex processing. Additionally, crude oil can be categorized as sweet or sour, depending on its sulfur content; sweet crude has low sulfur levels, while sour crude contains higher sulfur levels, affecting its market value and refining processes.
No, plastic is not made directly from sand. Plastic is typically made from petroleum, a fossil fuel, through a process that involves extracting hydrocarbons from crude oil and refining them into the polymers used to make plastic products. Sand is used in the production of glass, not plastic.
