PVC is a thermoplastic , it's shape can be changed easily . so it easy to make toys with pvc .
while Bakelite is a thermosetting plastic , which gets into a particular shape once and for all . Which means once moulded into a particular shape , it's shape can not be changed. Also it does not change shape on heating so it is used in utnesil handles and switches.
