| Thermoforming Process Engineering Plastics Materials |
| Thermoforming is a manufacturing process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The following plastics materials that are commonly used in the Thermoforming process. |

| Plastic Component Design to Manufacturing Review |
| In order to move a part from the design stage to commercial reality, it is usually necessary to build prototype parts for testing and modification. The preferred method for making prototypes is to simulate as closely as practical the same process by which the parts will be made in commercial production. |
|
| Polymers Review |
| Polymers are also an important part of materials science. Polymers are the raw materials (the resins) used to make what we commonly call plastics. Plastics are really the final product, created after one or more polymers or additives have been added to a resin during processing, which is then shaped into a final form. |
