Why are the properties of plastics so varied?
Post Body
So I'm guessing plastics are pretty similar at the molecular level at least having more in common with each other than with metals or salts. So, why is there such a variety in properties (strong, soft, brittle, elastic...)? What do brittle plastics have in common and how are they different to elastic plastics?
