plastic reinforcers

While thermoplastics are naturally strong and durable in their own right – often being preferred over their metal counterparts – sometimes additives can further reinforce certain features of plastic injection molding. This is especially beneficial when using types of thermoplastics that excel in some properties but lack in other departments such as heat resistance or durability. Some such enhancers that are often used in plastic injection molding are mineral reinforcers such as glass and ceramic additives.
