Answer to Question 1

Uniform wall thickness helps ensure the full shot for a part. Also it helps with even flow of the material. Ribs can be added to help those especially thick areas and make it a little easier to injection mold.

Answer to Question 2

Just one plastic material is needed to be listed here. Not the brand name necessarily, but the type of plastic material it is.
