The words “polymers” and “plastics” are often taken as synonymous but in fact there is a distinction. The polymer is the pure material which results form the process of polymerisation and is usually taken as the family name for materials which have long chain-like molecules and this includes rubber. Pure polymers are seldom used on their own and it is when additives are present that the term plastic is applied. Polymers contain additives for a number of reasons. In some cases impurities are present as a result of the polymerisation additives such as stabilisers, lubricants, fillers, pigments, etc., are added to enhance the properties of the material.

单词“聚合物”和“塑料”通常被看作是同义的，但事实上是有区别的。聚合物是缘于聚合反应过程的纯物质，常常被看作具有长链分子材料的系列名称，这也包括橡胶。纯的聚合物很少独自使用，当存在添加剂时它适用于专有名词塑料。由许多原因聚合物含有添加剂。在某些情况下作为聚合反应的结果存在杂质，去除这些杂质以获得纯的聚合物可能是不经济的。在其它情况下，添加象稳定剂、润滑剂、填充剂、颜料等之类的添加剂，以增强材料的性能。

There are two important classes of plastics:
