Question: please can you explain what termoplastic is?

Hi!

Sure 🙂

A thermoplastic is a material, usually a plastic polymer (a polymer is a molecule, made from joining together many small molecules called monomers), which becomes soft when heated and hard when cooled. Thermoplastic materials can be cooled and heated several times without any change in their chemistry or mechanical properties. When thermoplastics are heated, they melt to a liquid. They freeze to a glassy state when cooled enough.

I hope this helps 🙂 please let me know if you want to know more 🙂
