Question:

Which of the following are made from thermosetting plastic?

Options:

Bottles

Crockery

Shoes

Handbags

Correct Answer:

Crockery

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2. Crockery.

Among the options provided, Crockery is typically made from thermosetting plastic. Thermosetting plastics undergo a chemical reaction during the curing or setting process, and once they are set, they cannot be remolded or reshaped. Crockery, such as melamine plates or bowls, is often made from thermosetting plastics due to their durability and heat resistance. Once molded into a specific shape, the crockery retains that shape and cannot be easily changed. The other items mentioned—bottles, shoes, and handbags—often use thermoplastic materials that can be melted and reshaped multiple times.
