Thermoset plastics contain polymers that cross-link together during the curing process to form an irreversible chemical bond. The cross-linking process eliminates the risk of the product remelting when heat is applied, making thermosets ideal for high-heat applications such as electronics and appliances.
• More resistant to high temperatures than thermoplastics
• Highly flexible design
• Thick to thin wall capabilities
• Excellent aesthetic appearance
• High levels of dimensional stability
• Due to all these reasons Thermosetting polymers cannot be reshaped and reused.
