Laminating is when paper or card are covered in clear polymer.

Laminating means sticking several layers of material together, the clear polymer coated paper or card process is encapsulation.

State - the form of matter; gas, liquid or solid
Malleable - can be pressed into shape without breaking, usually in reference to metals
Brittle - breaks or fractures easily without deforming or stretching
Laminating - sticking several layers of material together
Plasticity - can be pressed into shape without breaking, usually in reference to polymers
