Answer:
Thermoplastic
It can be synthesized by the process called addition polymerization.
They have low melting points and low tensile strength.
It is lower in molecular weight, compared to thermosetting plastic.
Thermosetting plastic
They are synthesized by condensation polymerization.
They have high melting points and tensile strength.
It is high in molecular weight.

Answer
Thermoplastics. Though thermoset plastics and thermoplastics sound similar, they have very different properties and applications. ... The primary physical difference is that thermoplastics can be remelted back into a liquid, whereas thermoset plastics always remain in a permanent solid state.
