The thermoplastic is a type of plastic made of long chains. These chains are tangled together in no particular pattern. Their low number of cross links allows them to become soft when heated. They can hence be reshape when heated and become stiff again after they cool.

Answer 3

Thermoplastic is a type of polymer material that can be heated and molded into different shapes when in a certain temperature range. It can be melted and reshaped multiple times without undergoing any chemical change, making it recyclable and reusable. Thermoplastics are commonly used in various industries for making products such as packaging materials, containers, pipes, and automotive parts.
