Answer:
Characteristics Of Plastics :
1. Toughness or Tensile strength :
plastics vary in their tensile strength from material to material. plastics have much less toughness as compared to metals and alloys like steel.
2. light Weight :
plastics are much lighter in weight as compared to woods, metals , etc.
3. Chemical Reactivity :
Plastics are not affected by acids and alkalines. natural polymers such as cotton, wool, etc are damaged by acids.
4. Electrical Conductivity :
plastics do not conduct electricity . This property of plastic is used for making electrical appliances like switches, irons, touches, bulb- holders etc..
5.Effect of Flame :
