Question

Explain with a diagram of
thesmosetting and

thermoplastica

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thermoplastics are defined as polymers that can be melted and recast almost indefinitely. They are molten when heated and harden upon cooling. When frozen, however, a thermoplastic becomes glass-like and subject to fracture.

A thermo setting plastic is a polymer that irreversibly becomes rigid when heated. ... Initially, the polymer is a liquid or soft solid. Heat provides energy for chemical reactions that increase the cross-linking between polymer chains, curing the plastic.
