Explain the weatherability of plastics.
What will be an ideal response?
The weatherability of a plastic involves consideration of moisture, ultraviolet light, heat, and chemicals found in the air as ozone and hydrochloric acid. High-density polyethylene (HDPE) has great resistance to acids, water absorption, and weathering. It is used for electrical wire insulation. Acrylics also have great resistance to weathering and excellent optical qualities, so they are widely used for glazing.
