thermoset
A thermoset, also known as a thermosetting polymer, is a type of polymer that becomes irreversibly hardened or cured when heated. Unlike thermoplastics, which can be melted and reshaped multiple times, thermosets maintain their shape and solidity even when exposed to high temperatures, due to cross-linking between polymer chains during the curing process. They are typically used in applications where heat resistance and mechanical strength are required.
