SAN - STYRENE ACRYLONITRILE |
• Styrene Acrylonitrile (SAN) is a copolymer of styrene with acrylonitrile. |
• It has moderate ductility compared to other thermoplastics. |
• It is frequently used instead of polystyrene due to its high heat resistance. |
• Typical acrylonitrile content in the SAN compound is between 20-30%. |
• Thanks to the acrylonitrile in its content, the advantages it provides are increasing. |
• Mainly used in general purpose polystyrene applications where additional chemical resistance and medium high temperature resistance are needed. |
• It is a hard, transparent and rigid plastic, with a strong chemical resistance. |
