  5. Thermoplastic They can stretch or bend They soften & melt when heated Then can be remoulded into new shapes They have no cross links between the polymer molecules Thermosetting Are rigid, they break when bent They char or decompose when heated They cannot be moulded into new shapes They have cross links between the polymer molecules Types of Polymers
