PLASTIC MATERIAL
PLASTIC MATERIAL Plastic are a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials that use polymer s as a main ingredient. Their plasticity makes it possible for plastics to be moulded , extruded or pressed into solid objects of various shapes. This adaptability, plus a wide range of other properties, such as being lightweight, durable, flexible, and inexpensive to produce, has led to its widespread use. Plastics typically are made through human industrial systems. Most modern plastics are derived from fossil fuel-based chemical like natural gas or petroleum however, recent industrial methods use variants made from renewable materials, such as corn or cotton derivatives. In developed economies, about a third of plastic is used in packaging and roughly the same in buildings in applications such as piping , plumbing or vinyl sid...
