is a thermoplastic polymer structural material with high strength, good toughness and easy processing and molding, also known as ABS resin.
ABS is the acronym of acrylic butadiene styrene, which refers to the graft copolymer of acrylonitrile, 1,3-butadiene and styrene. The molecular formula can be written as (C8H8 C4H6 C3H3N) x, but in fact it is often a mixture of grafted polymer containing butadiene and acrylonitrile-styrene polymer, in which acrylonitrile accounts for 15%~35%, butadiene accounts for 5%~3% and styrene accounts for 4%~6%.
ABS engineering plastics are opaque ivory granules, and their products can be colored with high gloss. The relative density of ABS is about 1.5, and its water absorption is low. ABS has good adhesion with other materials, and is easy to be printed on the surface, coated and plated. ABS has an oxygen index of 18~2, which is a flammable polymer with yellow flame, black smoke and a special cinnamon smell.
