Plastic type 1, or PET (polyethylene terephthalate), is generally not used in water density applications due to its potential to leach harmful chemicals into water over time, especially when exposed to heat or prolonged contact. Additionally, PET may not provide the necessary durability or chemical resistance needed in certain water density applications. Its physical properties also make it less suitable for precise density measurements compared to other materials specifically designed for such purposes.
What else can I help you with?
Is water denser than plastic?
Yes, water is denser than plastic. The density of water is about 1 gram per cubic centimeter, while the density of plastic can vary depending on the type, but is generally less than 1 gram per cubic centimeter.
Oil floats on water because its density is what on water?
Type your answer here... the oil has more density
Speed of sound in plastic?
The speed of sound in plastic can vary depending on the type of plastic. On average, the speed of sound in most plastics ranges from 2000 to 3000 meters per second. This speed can be influenced by factors such as temperature, density, and the specific properties of the plastic material.
What type of plastic are wheelie bins made from?
High density polyethylene, though some bins are made from recycled plastics.
Is density of glass greater than that of water and why?
it depends on the type of glass you are talking about.
Is water denser than plastic?
Yes, water is denser than plastic. The density of water is about 1 gram per cubic centimeter, while the density of plastic can vary depending on the type, but is generally less than 1 gram per cubic centimeter.
What type of plastic is T upperware?
tupperware plastic is HDPE( high density polyethelene)
Is plastic heavier than aluminum?
Aluminum is heavier than plastic. Aluminum has a density of about 2.7 g/cm3, while plastic generally has a lower density depending on the type of plastic.
Does plastic or wood float better?
Plastic generally floats better than wood due to its lower density. Density is the mass of a material per unit volume, and since plastic is less dense than wood, it displaces more water and floats more easily. However, the specific type of plastic or wood can also impact their respective buoyancy properties.
What type of plastic is plastic bags?
Most of plastic bags are made of Polyethylene. It could be made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) or Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) or a combination of both in addition to Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE).
What type of plastic are kayaks typically made from?
Kayaks are typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic.
What is the cheapest type of plastic available in the market?
The cheapest type of plastic available in the market is usually polyethylene, specifically low-density polyethylene (LDPE).
Will plastic float in water?
Some plastics will float in water and others will sink. It depends on the type of plastic and in particular it depends on the density of the plastic material. This property is used as a method for separating the different plastics sent for recycling. Polyethylene and Polypropylene, for example, will float in water while PVC and ABS will sink.
What type of water you Cant see?
water vapour
What is the common soda bottle made of?
a high density poly ester (HDPE)....a type of plastic
What is the density of plastic in kgm3?
That depends on many things including but not limited to; 1. how thick the plastic is (if it's solid or just a shell around a hollow center) 2. the type of plastic, as different plastics have different densities. 3. if it is a hollow ball, the size of the ball will make a difference as the greater the volume of air compared to the volume of plastic will lower the density
What type of container water should be stored?
Plastic
