7. POLYMERS CH11 Thermoplastic - an organic substance which is formable or pliable at higher temperatures (thermoplasts can be repeatedly melted without any change to the polymer molecules). Thermoset - an organic substance which is irreversibly hardened, "cured" at a high temperature (thermosets are not fully polymerised in their raw state).
