Explanation:

1) Plastics are generally low cost, easy to manufacture, durable, strong for their weight, electrically and thermally insulative, and resistant to shock, corrosion, chemicals, and water.

2) Teflon is the trade name for a plastic material called polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which was discovered by researchers working for the DuPont chemical company in 1938. ... In addition to its non-reactive nature, Teflon is resistant to electrical current, and it has properties that make it slick, but not oily.
