Why are electrical wires not made from plastic?
electrical conducters are madfrom metal because charges can travel through metal but rubber is a insulator so the charges cant get throught it so wires are covered with rubber for safety reasons so you don't get a shock.
What type of plastic is rubber?
Plastic is a synthetic material made from a wide range of organic polymers such as polyethylene, PVC, nylon, etc., that can be molded into shape while soft and then set into a rigid or slightly elastic form. Rubber is a tough elastic polymeric substance made from the latex of a tropical plant or synthetically. Hard rubber is a rubber that is stiff and relatively inflexible. It is made by vulcanizing natural rubber with a high percentage of sulfur.
