● Thermoplastics : - Plastics which have a linear arrangement of molecules are thermoplastics. These plastics can be deformed easily on heating and can be remoulded into a new shape. Example - Terylene , nylon , etc.
● Thermosetting plastics : - Plastics which have a cross - linked arrangement of molecules are called thermosetting plastics. These plastics cannot be remoulded again by gentle heating. Example - Bakelite , melamine , etc.

Synthetic fibers melt on heating. If they catch fire, they melt and stick to the body of the person wearing them. This is why it is advised not to wear clothes made of synthetic fiber while working in a kitchen or in a fire laboratory.

Because synthetic fibers are more hydrophobic than natural fibers.
Cotton, linen, wool, hemp: these fibers are absorbent, and will take on water until they are replete.
Nylon and polyester, the two fabrics most commonly used in raincoats and umbrellas, are not naturally absorbent the way natural fibers are. They naturally resist waterlogging, and with a little bit of treatment they can be made quite waterproof.
Cotton and other natural fibers, on the other hand, require a lot of treatment to become suitable for wear in heavy rain. And everyone who has ever been around a wet wool coat or sweater knows that wet wool smells like a wet dog.
