Thermosetting Plastic Fillers | Purpose, Types & Applications
Hindi + Urdu + English mix
For students, engineers, machinists
In this video, we explain Fillers used in Thermosetting Plastics – an essential part of polymer engineering. Fillers are solid materials added to thermosetting resins to reduce cost, improve strength, control shrinkage, enhance thermal stability, and modify properties.
We cover:
🔹 What are Fillers? (Definition & Role in thermosets)
🔹 Types of Fillers – Inorganic (glass fibers, silica, mica, talc, calcium carbonate), Organic (wood flour, cellulose, carbon black, aramid fibers)
🔹 Percentage Range of fillers (5% – 60% depending on application)
🔹 Purpose – Strength improvement, stiffness, dimensional stability, electrical insulation, flame resistance
🔹 Applications – Automotive composites, electrical insulators, aerospace materials, kitchenware handles, adhesives, laminates
This video is useful for engineering students, mechanical engineers, and material science learners who want to understand why fillers are mixed into thermosetting plastics and how they enhance mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties.
