There are polymers, and then there are superpolymers. Superpolymers are so-named because they exhibit exceptional characteristics in specific areas, such as mechanical or chemical. These might include tensile strength, flexural strength, chemical resistance, a high strength-to-weight ratio or a desirable FST (flame, smoke, and toxicity) rating. In any case, the

Developing a product from scratch is an inherently arduous process that goes beyond sketching ideas and creating a few models. To create a retail-ready product, a significant amount of prototyping is required. Some companies manufacture hundreds of prototypes for a single product, so they can experience and test different product
