2. Which plastic type has great capacity to
tolerate heat?
3. PVC containers are made by using which
plastic?
4. Which plastic resembles glass?
Answers
Answer:
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
PTFE has one of the highest melting points of any thermoplastic at 327°C, and a very large operating temperature range. It's thermally stable enough to be used anywhere between -200°C and +260°C.
Explanation:
1. Why plastic is not corroded easily?
Plastic do not corrode
Plastic do not corrodeBecuase plastic is not contain metals . And , Corrosion occurs when metals react with oxgen and other gases present in environement . So plastic do not corrode
2. Which plastic type has great capacity totolerate heat?
PTFE is unique because it's almost completely chemically inert and highly insoluble in most solvents, making it ideal for high-temperature applications. PTFE has one of the highest melting points of any thermoplastic at 327°C, and a very large operating temperature range.
3. PVC containers are made by using which plastic?
