There isn't too much of a difference between elastomers and plastics. The only real difference between them is how far you can stretch them. Other than that they are really similar.

The difference between plastics and elastomers is actually quite simple. Plastics are made from oil and elastomers are made from synthetic material.
yo mamma i dont know
because of the difference in physical characteristics of thermoplastics and metals, there are corresponding differences between welding techniques for metals and thermo-plastics. in the welding of metal, welding rod and parent material become molten and fuse into the required bond to form welded joints. this is not in thermo plastics, because they are poor heat conductors , they are difficult to heat uniformly .. so diifferent methods are used to weld plastics...
There are many types of plastics. ABS, acrylic, amino plastics, Bakelite, cellophane, cellulose, cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, copolymer, elastomer, epoxy resin, ester, GRP, HIPS, LLDPE, melamine, monome, nylon, phenolic, polycarbonate, polyesters, polymer, polymerization, polypropylene, and polystyrene are a majority of the common ones.
