ABS ACRYLONITRILE BUTADIENE STYRENE |
• Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), accompanied by Polybutadiene by emulsion or mass polymerization • It is an amorphous polymer made from Acrylonitrile and Styrene. |
• Butadiene makes the product harder and more resistant even at low temperatures, while styrene monomer imparts good machinability to ABS; Acrylonitrile provides hardness, heat and chemical resistance. |
• It can be processed by injection or extrusion molding technique and is easy to process. |
• The most important feature of its is impact resistance and hardness. |
• ABS is generally defined by three features; Fluidity, Impact resistance - Heat resistance. |
• It can generally be used at temperatures between •20°C and +80°C. |
• It shows good resistance to heat and chemicals thanks to its strong and durable structure even at low temperatures. |
• ABS has poor weather resistance, so it is recommended for indoor applications only. |
• It is resistant to aqueous acids, alkalis, concentrated hydrochloric and phosphoric acids, alcohols and animal, vegetable and mineral oils, but is affected by concentrated sulfuric and nitric acids. |
• Electrical insulation is very good. |
• It is recommended to be used in indoor applications due to the weak atmospheric condition resistance of ABS. |
• It is soluble in esters, ketones, ethylene dichloride or acetone. |
