What Is the Definition of Thermoforming?
Thermoforming plastics are plastics that can be molded when they are at the right temperature. The process of molding these plastics is called “thermoforming.” This process varies greatly, depending on the product and which materials, thicknesses of sheets and mold types will achieve the required result. The earliest recorded use of thermoforming was in ancient Rome, where tortoiseshell was heated with oil and used to form eating utensils.
