Question:

what are the compositions of a plastic? how are they processed?

what are the compositions of plastic?

Answer:

Plastics can be divided into two distinct categories on the basis of their chemical composition. One category is plastics that are made up of polymers having only aliphatic (linear) carbon atoms in their backbone chains. The other category of plastics is made up of heterochain polymers. These compounds contain atoms such as oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur in their backbone chains, in addition to carbon. Most of the engineering plastics are composed of heterochain polymers.
