ABS is the terpolymer of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene. SAN is the bipolymer of Acrylonitrile-Styrene. Each of the three components possesses certain functions. Acrylonitrile provides chemical resistance and hardness, Butadiene contributes toughness and impact strength; Styrene offers gloss and process-ability. Combining the above characteristics, ABS is now the most popular and economical Engineering Plastic.
ABS Properties:
1.ABS resin has the characteristics of high strength, low weight. Appearance of opaque, is light ivory, non-toxic, tasteless,
2.ABS resin has both the characteristics of tough, hard, just slow combustion, the flame is yellow, have black smoke, plastic softening after burning, burning, issued a special smell of cinnamon, but no molten dripping phenomenon. Is one of a common engineering plastics.
