  1. Thermoplastics
    1. Different types
      1. PE
        1. PS
          1. PVC
            1. PP
              1. PET

                  2. Are plastics that are softened by heating and can be formed and melted as many times as we like
                  3. Thermoset
                    1. Different types
                      1. Melamine
                        1. Bakelite
                          1. Polyester resins
                          2. The polymer chains of thermoset plastics criss cross to form networks once they have been formed they cannot be re melted to create differnet forms
                          3. Elastometers
                            1. Rubber
                              1. Neoprene
                                1. Are very flexible materials that recover their shape and dimensions when external forces stop acting on them
                                2. Plastics are materials formed by chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms
