                                                          - It is used as a base of
                                                             building and bridges
                                                             because it is very strong.

In some cases, new materials are created due to the chemical
change.

Plastic                        Petroleum (liquid & burns - Tough solid.

                               easily)                    - Resists burning

In other cases, new materials are created by mixing materials at high
temperatures.

Shrink-wrap                             We add heat to plastic to make it shrink.
