A little more on Engineering Plastic

Being more expensive, Engineering Plastics are produced in lower quantities and tend to be used for low-volume applications.

Engineering Plastics have gradually replaced traditional Engineering Materials such as wood or metal in many applications. Besides equalling or surpassing them in weight/strength and other properties. Engineering Plastics are much easier to manufacture, especially in complicated shapes.

Engineering Plastics – Thermoplastic

A thermoplastic, or thermosoftening Plastic, is a Plastic material, a polymer, that becomes pliable or moldable above a specific temperature and solidifies upon cooling.

Most thermoplastics have a high molecular weight. The polymer chains associate through intermolecular forces, which weaken rapidly with increased temperature, yielding a viscous liquid. Thus, thermoplastics may be reshaped by heating and are typically used to produce parts by various polymer processing techniques.
