Some of the conclusions that I see about the different types of plastic is that lots of plastic is different. Many people also don’t realize that there are different types of plastic. Everyone just think plastic is a material used for lots of items.  I saw lots of number 2 plastics and number 1 were the most popular. My pile actually had no non-labeled items which is very different than others. Lots of pros about using plastic is that most things are reusable, some of the cons are they kill millions of animals every year. Some properties of plastic are

• Strength
• Weather Resistance
• Fire Resistance
• Durability
• Dimensional Stability
• Chemical Resistance
• Thermal Resistance
• Working Conditions

Plastic is a harmful but useful material and is a very interesting tech topic.
