Thermosetting plastics, often referred to as thermosets, are a type of polymer that undergoes a chemical change when subjected to heat and pressure, resulting in a hardened structure that cannot be remolded or reshaped after the initial curing process. This irreversible transformation is due to the formation of cross-links between polymer chains during the curing process, which gives thermosetting plastics their rigid and durable characteristics.
