Typically, saucepans are made with a heat-resistant plastic handle, because metal handles conduct heat, making it easier to get burned if the cook isn't careful.
Saucepan handles are usually made from wood or plastic because these materials have low thermal conductivity and are less likely to get hot when the pan is placed on high heat. This prevents burns or discomfort while handling the pan. Additionally, wood and plastic handles are easier to grip and more comfortable to hold compared to metal handles.
No, melamine is not typically used for making handles of saucepans. Handles are usually made from materials such as stainless steel, silicone, or heat-resistant plastics. Melamine is more commonly used for making dishware, utensils, and decorative items.
Because metals tend to be very effective at conducting heat. As such a metal handle will tend to get very hot as the pan gets hot. Obviously this increases the risk to the user, so saucepans commonly have handles made of a material that is a poor conductor of heat.
Plastic is not suitable for making saucepans because it cannot withstand high temperatures. When exposed to heat, plastic can melt, deform, or release harmful chemicals into food. Metal or ceramic materials are more appropriate for saucepan construction due to their heat resistance and durability.
Usually it is made of plastic as the name suggests.
Obviously, not all saucepans have plastic handles, but most saucepans have insulating handles - wood is another common material - so that they can be safely picked up when the rest of the saucepan is hot.

Handles in a car are made of plastic........ Love Handles are made cellulite
So you can pick them up without burning your hands
Whether a saucepan can be used in an oven usually depends on the type of material from which the pan's handles are made. If the pan has a wooden or plastic handle, it should not be used in an oven. Most commercially manufactured saucepans have heat resistant handles, and may be used safely at baking temperatures up to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If there is any doubt as to the material of the handles, do not use the pan with higher temperatures - broiling, for instance, might not be safe.
Hard plastic is used in some saucepans and trays because they are bad conductors of heat. That means that they will stay cooler for longer. Whereas a metal handle would get hot and cause injury if it has been left on the heat for a long time. However many people still prefer metal handles because they are more robust.

insulator, a conductor is usually metal. thats why the handles of pots and pans are made of plastic and wood
Shotguns do not have handles. They have stocks and forends, and in some cases grips. These parts are usually made of wood, such as walnut, or plastic.
Depends on what they're made of, not what they are.Anything made of a conducting material is a conductor, whatever it is.Anything made of an insulating material is an insulator, whatever it is.Material properties - conducting or insulating - is more important than shape.Scissors are generally - but not always - made of metal.And metals are usually conductors, making the scissors conductors.But a scissor might have plastic handles. Plastic is usually an insulator, which would make the handles insulators.
One feature of Le Creuset saucepans is a rim designed for precision pouring of sauces and liquids. They also have large handles, measurement markings on the interior of the pans, are made of durable stainless steel, and are dishwasher safe.
