give differences between thermo plastic and thermo setting plastic
Answers
Answer:
1) Thermoplastic can be melted again and again to form new items but thermosetting plastic s can be melted and given shape only once
Answer:
thermosetting plastics:-
➡️A thermosetting polymer, resin, or plastic, often called a thermoset, is a polymer that is irreversibly hardened by curing from a soft solid or viscous liquid prepolymer or resin.
➡️Curing is induced by heat or suitable radiation and may be promoted by high pressure, or mixing with a catalyst.
➡️Common examples of thermoset plastics and polymers include epoxy, silicone, polyurethane and phenolic.
thermo plastics:-
➡️Thermoplastics are defined as polymers that can be melted and recast almost indefinitely.
➡️ Some of the most common types of thermoplastic are polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinylchloride, polystyrene, polyethylenetheraphthalate and polycarbonate.
➡️Examples of thermoplastic materials are polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyamides, polyesters, and polyurethanes.
