These polymers are very widely used in day to day life. Abbreviation related to plastics and polymers  of some of the polymers are as follows

Explanation:

Teflon is also known as PTFE

PTFE=PolyTetraFluoroEthylene.

Uses:- in the manufacture of waterproof fabrics.

           in the manufacture of non-stick cookware.

            in the manufacture of friction reduction devices.

PET  = Polyethylene terephthalate.

Uses:-to make carbonated drinks, water bottles, plastic combs, pens, etc.

PHB= Poly hydroxy Butyrate.

Uses :-Poly hydroxy butyrate (PHB), which can be used to make biodegradable plastics,

It is the most common poly hydroxy alkanoate (PHA) produced by bacteria as a storage material under restricted growth conditions.

PHV= Poly Hydroxy Valerate.

Uses:- It is stored inside cells as energy storage materials by various microorganisms.
