Description
Urea molding compounds ( thermosetting plastics) are amino molding compounds composed of urea formaldehyde and alpha-cellulose as filling material with the addition of lubricant, hardening agent & pigments. Thermosets offer many advantages over basic thermoplastics and are suitable for compression, transfer, or injection molding. They are produced in a precise and vibrant range of colors. They are available in powder (which gives a much better surface) or granular form. Thermosets are strong, glossy, durable, and highly resistant to scratches and staining. They are not affected by fats, oils, esters, ethers, petrol, alcohol, or acetone nor by detergents or weak acids & weak alkalis
