Question

Match each material to the application best suited to its characteristic properties.

Material: PMMA, PS, PC, PP, ABS, PA, LDPE, HDPE

Application/ Requirements:

1) Computer case (rigid, low cost, good electrical insulator)

2) Milk jug (tough, light, low cost)

3) Lighted outdoor sign (transparent, excellent UV stability)

4) Wire insulation (high impact resistance, flexible, excellent insulator)

5) Clear disposable cup (rigid, low cost, transparent)

6) Plastic hinge (excellent fatigue resistance, moderate stiffness)

7) Fiber weave (cloth) (good wear resistance, easy to make fibers)

8) Water cooler jug (transparent, tough, non-hygroscopic)

1) Computer case (rigid, low cost, good electrical insulator) - ABS

2) Milk jug (tough, light, low cost) - HDPE

3) Lighted outdoor sign (transparent, excellent UV stability) - PMMA

4) Wire insulation (high impact resistance, flexible, excellent insulator) -LDPE

5) Clear disposable cup (rigid, low cost, transparent) - PS

6) Plastic hinge (excellent fatigue resistance, moderate stiffness) - PP

7) Fiber weave (cloth) (good wear resistance, easy to make fibers) - PA

8) Water cooler jug (transparent, tough, non-hygroscopic) - PC

(Note:-I would suggest PVC for wire insulation. It is not mentioned in the above question.)
