No matter how many times you expose TPEs to sufficient heat they will become soft and re-harden when cool.
Once a thermoset material is cured with heat it forms a permanent shape that cannot be reheated and reformed.

In all cases, polymer composites enhance performance thanks to their resistance to corrosion, heat, weather, and flame.
It is a continuous molding process where fibers are saturated with a liquid polymer, then carefully pulled through a heated die to form the parts.
To start, it’s best to know the kind of environment in which your product will be and what kind of properties you need (e.g., heat or water resistant, hard or soft, color).
