ABS

A polymer consisting of Acrylonitrile, Butadiene and Styrene which can be combined in different ratios to produce a blend tailored to the customer's specific needs. Acrylonitrile contributes heat stability, chemical and aging resistance. Butadiene contributes low
temperature retention, toughness and impact strength. Styrene contributes a glossy finish, rigidity and processing ease. Together, they provide flame retardance, electroplatability and variable gloss finish capability.
