Differences are listed below:
Explanation:
Weight: Plastic can weigh appreciably much less than than metal. A plastic part weighs approximately one-sixth of the same part in steel.
Chemical resistance:Plastic are much less likely to suffer chemical attack and don not corrode.
Machinability: Plastic are much more easier to cut through than metal.
Product life: The life span for plastic is longer than of the metals in many applications.
Cost: The cost of plastic raw materials is appreciably less than of the metals.
Heat: Plastic are less heat resistive than metals.
Ultraviolet light can degrade the plastics soon.
Strength: Metal provides more strength than the plastic.
