1. Special features of plastics
Organic macromolecules and metals
Plastics are a special, young class of materials that compete with metals, among others, in the design of parts and products, differing markedly in the versatility of their properties. The technical culture deeply steeped in metallic materials must carefully bear in mind these differences in behavior and the specific features of plastics when drawing up characterization, control and evaluation plans.
