Question

Give examples to show that plastics are non-corrosive in nature.

✓

Answer

Plastics are not corroded even if they come in contact with strong chemicals. This is because of their non-reactive nature with most materials. For example, the cleansing chemicals that we use at home are stored in plastic bottles, instead of metal containers.
