1). Explain difference between thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thermoplastics have secondary bonds between molecular chains. Thermosetting plastics have primary bonds between molecular chains and held together by strong cross-links. Thermoplastics have low melting points and low tensile strength. Thermosetting plastics have high melting points and tensile Strength.

Answer 2

Answer:

THERMOPLASTIC:Such polymers or plastics are usually formed by addition polymerisation.

THERMOSETTING PLASTIC:These plastics are usually formed by condensation polymerisation.
