Abstract
Engineering thermoplastics and advanced engineering thermoplastics or ultrapolymers comprise a special, high-performance segment of synthetic plastic materials that offer premium properties. When properly formulated, ETP may be shaped into mechanically functional, semiprecision parts or structural components. This chapter presents a historical overview of the development of engineering thermoplastics covers the early pioneers in the field up to recent advances in engineering thermoplastics. In addition, it covers a broad range of chemistries, types of polymers, their properties, key performance features, and a brief description of targeted markets.
