Thermosoftening plastic

Plastics can be put into one of two categories. If they melt or soften when heated (like poly(ethene), PVC and polystyrene) then they are called thermoplastics or thermosoftening plastics. If they do not soften on heating but only char and decompose on further heating, they are known as thermosetting plastics. [Pg.239]
