$\large\underline\bold\red{Thermoplastic:-}$

• Thermoplastic can be synthesized by the process called addition polymerization.

•Thermoplastic is processed by injection moulding, extrusion process, blow moulding, thermoforming process, and rotational moulding.

•Thermoplastics have secondary bonds between molecular chains.

$\large\underline\bold\red{Thermosetting\:plastics:-}$

• Thermosetting plastics are synthesized by condensation polymerization.

• Thermosetting Plastic is processed by compression moulding, reaction injection moulding.

• Thermosetting plastics have primary bonds between molecular chains and held together by strong cross-links.
