  "whyPlastic": "A hook is a bent piece of metal or wood, and then you have to put it on the wall. Adhesive hooks stick with acrylic foam tape and suction hooks with a PVC or silicone cup. Screw-in hooks ship with wall anchors, and a drywall anchor is nylon or polyethylene unless the box says steel or zinc. Metal hooks are powder-coated or painted, and wooden ones are varnished. Magnetic hooks hold with a neodymium magnet plated in nickel or coated in epoxy. A solid brass or iron hook on a steel screw has no place for plastic to sit.",
