Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymer is a thermoplastic material. It is amorphous and has no melting point. This kind of material was created in the 1950s.
ABS polymer is a terpolymer, and since these polymers have been well known, they are in the best polymer content category such as PVC, PP, PE, and PS. These polymers are very important in the production of home-made products.
ABS specifications:
Strong shock resistance
Good stiffness
High-quality level
High dimensional stability in high-temperature conditions
Very good chemical resistance
Stress Cracking Resistance
ABS weaknesses:
Low transparency
Low resistance in climate conditions
Low flame resistance
It is clearly clear that the range of ABS-type polymers is very wide. Not only can monomers be changed, but over time they can be modified. We can say that these materials have good impact strength, have a relatively high softness point and generally have a smooth surface.
ABS typical applications:
- Office supplies
- Home appliances casing
- Heat resistant home
- Printing
