Answer 1

SOLUTION:

Polyurethane is the most versatile of the plastics used to craft cell phone cases. It can be hard or soft, and it can be shaped using a variety of different mold types. Polyurethane is easy to recycle, and you can sometimes find cell phone cases made with recycled products. Vinyl is another type of plastic that is often used to make cell phone skins, the very thin cell phone covers that are used more for decoration than protection.

Plastic cell phone cases are the most likely to have wild patterns, blingy extras like rhinestones and jewels, and cool features like kickstand (which makes it easier to watch movies and videos on your smartphone).
