Care of Plastics

Plastics differ from each other in their care needs. The exact recipe of each plastic, including its range of additives, influences how it will age. Even the pigment used to colour an otherwise identical object can cause objects to age differently. That said, most plastics are relatively stable if looked after appropriately but degradation, when it does occur, is irreversible making good care in the first place vital.
