Question

(b) Why saucepan handles are made of thermosetting plastics.
​

Answer 1

Thermosetting plastics are used in saucepan handles because they do not soften on heating and also they cannot be bent easily. These plastics like bakelite are poor conductors of heat

Answer 2

Answer:

because the saucepan is made with metal so it heats up but when you grip it then you shouldn't want that your hands will burn so handles are made of plastic to protect your hand from burning.
