Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene

 

ABS COMPOUNDS

ABS is an impact-resistant engineering thermoplastic & amorphous polymer. The compound is reinforced with 10-50% of minerals. ABS meets the property requirements at a reasonable price-cost effectiveness.

ABS WHEN ALLOYED TOGETHER WITH ADDITIVES, MINERALS LIKE CALCIUM, TALC THEY FORM ONE OF THE MOST WIDELY USED INDUSTRIAL AMORPHOUS THERMOPLASTICS WITH ENHANCED PROCESSABILITY, GOOD FLOW CHARACTERISTICS, STRENGTH, STIFFNESS AND, GOOD HEAT RESISTIVITY. THIS BLENDING WITH POLYMERS FURTHER INCREASES THE RANGE OF PROPERTIES AVAILABLE SUCH AS MECHANICAL, THERMAL... & MORE. ABS CAN BE READILY BLENDED OR ALLOYED WITH OTHER POLYMERS SUCH AS PA, PBT, PC ETC.
