Features Of Plastic Products

1.Recyclable
If you’re like most of us, you’ve probably reused an empty soda bottle at least once in your life. You’ve got plastic tupperware and maybe even some plastic plates, cups, and bowls. A combination of a few of the material’s finer traits makes it incredibly resuable.
It can also be recycled and reshaped into new products. Even more amazingly, it can be melted down into oil or fuel and scientists are working to make this process more and more efficient by the day. Read about how recycling can benefit the economy this excellent blog post.
2.Versatile
Add a little heat and pressure and plastic can become pretty much anything you want. Just think of all the shapes and sizes it comes in, from a baby’s sippy cup to airplane parts. It can be paper thin and flimsy, like a plastic grocery bag. Or rock hard and practically indestructible.
For anything plastic can do, there’s a good chance there’s another material – whether it’s glass, metal, rubber, or what have you – that can pull it off too. But few can match plastic’s ability to do just about anything, and do it pretty well, at that.
3.Odorless
Part of plastic’s reusability comes from the fact that it is almost completely devoid of smell, while also being pretty resistant to picking them up from food, drinks, soap, and pretty much anything else you can put in there. It’s why you can use that same tupperware over and over again without it smelling like old spaghetti. It’s also great for knowing when it’s clean or not – if you ever detect a smell on plastic, you know it’s time for a good washing.
