Plastics are synthetic materials. They can be softened and moulded into useful articles. They have many applications in engineering. There are two types of plastics: thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics.

 

ABS is a thermoplastic which is tough and durable. Because it has high impact strength, it has applications where sudden loads may occur.

 

Nylon is a hard, tough thermoplastic. It is used where silent, low-friction operation is required.

 

Acrylic can be formed in several ways. It is hard, durable, and has many uses.

 

Polyester resin is a thermosetting plastic used for castings. It has a number of useful properties.
