True.
The 2 categories or plastics are:
Thermosetting plastics and thermoplastics
Explain thermosetting plastics.
This plastic harden permanently under the effect of
an energy source such as heat, irradiation or a chemical reaction
Explain thermoplastics.
Thermoplastics soften when heated and harden when cooled. Thermoplastics can be reshaped when softened, maintaining their new shape when cooled.
