I should add that I've regularly cut all sorts of plastics and composites in the past - from acrylics (Perspex, Altuglas, etc) and polycarbonates (Lexan, etc), through phenolics (Tufnol, etc), polyethylenes (including high density PE = UHMW plastic) and various grades of nylon and acetal plastics as well as solid-surface worktop materials (which are generally acrylic/polyurethane resin mixes with stuff like aluminium oxides or bauxite thrown in). They all cut well on table saws, but some such as polyethylene do benefit from having special plastics blades which have zero or even negative rake teeth and greater clearance angles. Weld-back and swarf build-up around the blade (it melts and weld on) are the biggest problems with the non-thermo set plastics as they are a definite fire risk. This means that the saw and dust extraction system have to be cleaned-out and inspected before cutting and immediately afterwards and that a fire extinguisher has to be on hand when sawing! Thermo-set plastics such as phenolics get hot when sawing but don't seem to jam the saw or get hot enough to ignite, but I still don't take chances with them. The solid surface worktops are the composite worktops are the worst for leaving grit and swarf which will potentially mark rimbers, so a thorough clean-up is required after machining them.
