When Diana opened her eyes in the morning it was almost 9 o’clock. She
overslept, because she had not got a wink of sleep almost all night and drowsed off
only at sunrise. Her mood matched the weather outside that was very depressing.
She took a quick shower, dressed up, and hurried to work without breakfast.
Although she had been thinking all night she didn’t make a decision what line of
behavior to take. The best way was to pretend as if nothing had happened. She
hoped to slip to her cubicle unnoticed but at that very moment her mobile rang and
Silvia asked her to come to Mr. Robinson’s office. Diana had nothing to do, but to
face the reality. When she entered the office Silvia told her that a message was left
for her by Mr. Robinson who had gone to Chicago. Diana couldn’t refrain from
sighing with relief when she heard the news. On her boss desk Diana found a short
memo which read as follows:
Please read the contract and make amendments where necessary. I’ll get in
Next to it there was a printed copy of the contract. She also noticed a name
with a telephone number written on the calendar. That was it. She tried to
memorize the number and went quickly to her working place. She left the contract
on her desk and hurried downstairs out of the building. Five minutes later she was
sitting in a cafe, dialing a number.
Plastics are non-metallic, synthetic, carbon-based materials. They can be moulded, shaped, or extruded into flexible sheets, films, or fibres. Plastics are synthetic polymers. Polymers consist of long-chain molecules made of large numbers of identical small molecules (monomers). The chemical nature of a plastic is defined by the monomer (repeating unit) that makes up the chain of the polymer. Polyethene is a polyolefin; its monomer unit is ethene (formerly called ethylene). Other categories are acrylics (such as polymethylmethacrylate), styrenes (such as polystyrene), vinys (such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC)), polyesters, polyurethanes, polyamides (such as nylons), polyethers, acetals, phenolics, cellulosics, and amino resins. The molecules can be either natural — like cellulose, wax, and natural rubber — or synthetic — in polyethene and nylon. In co-polymers, more than one monomer is used.The giant molecules of which polymers consist may be linear, branched, or cross-linked, depending on the plastic. Linear and branched molecules are thermoplastic (soften when heated), whereas cross-linked molecules are thermosetting (harden when heated).Most plastics are synthesized from organic chemicals or from natural gas or coal. Plastics are light-weight compared to metals and are good electrical insulators. The best insulators now are epoxy resins and teflon. Teflon or polytetrafluoroethene (PTFE) was first made in 1938 and was produced commercially in 1950.Plastics can be classified into several broad types.1. Thermoplastics soften on heating, then harden again when cooled. Thermoplastic molecules are also coiled and because of this they are flexible and easily stretched.Typical example of thermoplastics is polystyrene. Polystyrene resins are characterized by high resistance to chemical and mechanical stresses at low temperatures and by very low absorption of water. These properties make the polystyrenes especially suitable for radio-frequency insulation and for parts used at low temperatures in refrigerators and in airplanes. PET (polyethene terephthalate) is a transparent thermoplastic used for soft-drinks bottles. Thermoplastics are also viscoelastic, that is, they flow (creep) under stress. Examples are polythene, polystyrene andPVC.2. Thermosetting plastics (thermosets) do not soften when heated, and with strong heating they decompose. In most thermosets final cross-linking, which fixes the molecules, takes place after the plastic has already been formed.Thermosetting plastics have a higher density than thermoplastics. They are less flexible, more difficult to stretch, and are less subjected to creep. Examples of thermosetting plastics include urea-formaldehyde or polyurethane and epoxy resins, most polyesters, and phenolic polymers such as phenol-formaldehyde resin.3. Elastomers are similar to thermoplastics but have sufficient cross-linking between molecules to prevent stretching and creep.
