Thermoplastics, on the other hand, can be reformed and reset over and over again using heat.
Thermoplastic itself means “the ability to be reprocessed by heat.”
Or, if a product is made incorrectly or needs to be adjusted during the prototyping phase, it can simply be heated again and reshaped, creating no waste.

Traditionally, process aids for extrusion contain
fluoropolymers which may be classifiable as per-
and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS), a group of
chemicals widely used in a variety of applications
due to their ability to be water and oil repellent,
non-stick, and heat resistant.
