thumb|upright=1.35|Household items made of various types of plastics Plastics are a wide range of synthetic or semisynthetic materials composed primarily of polymers. Their defining characteristic, plasticity, allows them to be molded, extruded, or pressed into a diverse range of solid forms. This adaptability, combined with a wide range of other properties such as low weight, durability, flexibility, chemical resistance, low toxicity, and low-cost production, has led to their widespread use around the world. While most plastics are produced from natural gas and petroleum, a growing minority a
Plastics are synthetic or semisynthetic materials made primarily of polymers that can be shaped into many different forms, making them useful for countless products. They are widely used globally because they are lightweight, durable, flexible, resistant to chemicals, and inexpensive to produce, though most are currently made from natural gas and petroleum.
