Updated (for multiple product Ids in an array)

Here is the correct way to disable/remove the "Remove this item" button, for a specific product ID (that you should define) in the code below:

add_filter('woocommerce_cart_item_remove_link', 'customized_cart_item_remove_link', 20, 2 );
function customized_cart_item_remove_link( $button_link, $cart_item_key ){
    //SET HERE your specific products IDs
    $targeted_products_ids = array( 25, 22 );

    // Get the current cart item
    $cart_item = WC()->cart->get_cart()[$cart_item_key];

    // If the targeted product is in cart we remove the button link
    if( in_array($cart_item['data']->get_id(), $targeted_products_ids) )
        $button_link = '';

    return $button_link;
}

Code goes in function.php file of the active child theme (or active theme).

Tested and works.
