As already mentioned, much of the use for plastics just after World War II was as a cheap substitute for traditional materials, and in other cases the material was used for its novelty value. In many instances the result was detrimental to the industry and it required several years of painstaking work by the technical service departments of the major plastics materials manufacturers before confidence was regained in the use of plastics. Even today the public image of plastics is not entirely positive and the significant contribution of plastics to raising the standard of living and quality of life is not fully recognised. 

In the building industry there was much emphasis in the early 1960s on the allplastics house although the raw material suppliers who sponsored their design probably thought of them primarily as publicity exercises. As the plastics industry has matured it has been realised that it is better to emphasise those applications where plastics are preferable to traditional materials and this...

Thermoplastic elastomers have now been available for over 30 years and the writer recalls organising a conference on these materials in 1969. In spite of considerable publicity since that time these materials still only comprise about 5-10% of the rubber market (equivalent to about 1-2% of total plastics consumption). It is important to appreciate that simply being a thermoplastic material (and hence being processed and reprocessed like a thermoplastic plastics material) is not enough to ensure widespread application. Crucially the material must have acceptable properties for a potential end-use and at a finished product price advantageous over other materials.

As indicated earlier, heavy contamination can be buried, sealed or removed. Burying of the material should be well below the root growth zone, and this is normally taken as 3.0 m below the final ground-surface level. Sealing for heavy contamination to prevent vertical or lateral leaching through groundwater flow can be with compacted clay or proprietary plastic membranes. Removal from site of the contaminants is normally only contemplated in a landscaped scheme where the material, even at depth, could be a hazard to public health directly or phytotoxic to plant life. 

There are many risks people are subjected to in the plant, at home, and elsewhere that can cause harm, health problems, and/or death with plastic products representing very few. Precautions should be taken and enforced based on what is practical, logical, and useful. However, those involved in laws and regulations, as well as the public and, particularly the news media should recognize there is acceptable risk. 

The mutual chemistry of plastic containers and food products must be considered for any proposed application. There is continuous physical and chemical activity at the interface between the food product and the container. The type and extent of this activity determines whether or not the plastic container can successfully hold and protect the food product. However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the American public are increasingly suspicious of all plastics, particularly the halo-genated compounds. The recent ban (April 1973) on poly(vinyl chloride)...
