Super engineering plastics (high value-added) products
Super-reinforced plastic with high heat resistance and excellent mechanical strength
Super engineering plastics (special engineering plastics) are highly functional materials with strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance comparable to metals.
These materials are used across various industries, including automotive, electrical, medical, and aerospace, as well as in industrial machinery parts, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and inspection equipment.
Due to their challenging processing conditions and temperature adjustments, these materials require advanced processing techniques.
