| -plastic |
Material, usually polymers developed from the by-products of oil refining and coal distillation, which, though stable in normal use, changes its shape when pressure or heat (or both) is applied. If the materials soften again when reheated, they are said to be thermoplastic. If, after fashioning, they resist further applications of heat, they are said to be thermoset.
