| Summary |
Thermosets comprise around 25% of world plastic consumption. The use of thermosets dates back over 100 years to the advent of phenolics. Today, a large range of different reactive chemicals is used in the synthesis of these resins. Common thermoset systems include phenol-formaldehyde, melamine-formaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde, resorcinol-formaldehyde, epoxy, polyurethane, polyalkyd , silicone, polyester, acrylic, furan and polyimide. A variety of additives are found in thermosets. Plasticiser-type compounds are used to promote flow in high viscosity compounds such as epoxy resins. Particulate f |
