A) Thermoplastics
Thermoplastics are low of cost, are able to be colored, have
good wear resistance, cold and heat resistance, as well as
weathering resistance
CD cases are known for being made out of a thermoplastic material. CD cases
are flexible but strong enough to keep a CD safe. CD cases contain
Polypropylene.
B)
Thermoset products
Better retention of mechanical properties at high
temperatures. They have higher toughness and impact
resistance. And better environmental resistance

A police anti rioting shield is a thermoset product. These are used the shield
off people with their high level of strength. They contain Polycarbonate.
C)
Elastomer product
Elastomers are
a natural or synthetic polymer having elastic
properties. An example would be rubber.
