ABS Sheet, Rod, Tube for Impact Resistant and Machinable Engineering Applications

product details

Description

ABS is an opaque thermoplastic copolymer combining the properties of Acrylonitrile, Butadiene, and Styrene. It provides a balanced combination of toughness, rigidity, impact resistance, surface hardness, and chemical resistance at a cost-effective price. Flame retardant and UV-resistant grades are available for specific industrial requirements. ABS is widely used in automotive, electronics, electrical, mechanical, and chemical equipment components due to its ease of fabrication, good dimensional stability, and excellent mechanical properties.


Features

  • Good mechanical strength and high impact resistance, even at low temperatures

  • Scratch and abrasion resistant, excellent creep resistance

  • Good electrical insulation properties

  • High dimensional stability, strong surface, good luster

  • Good chemical resistance to inorganic salts, alkalis, and many acids (except strong oxidizers)

  • Flame retardant grades available (UL94 V-0)

  • Easy to machine, mold, dye, or electroplate


Applications

  • Automotive components, such as dashboards, interior panels, and housings

  • Electrical and electronic enclosures and components

  • Mechanical parts and product prototypes

  • Chemical equipment components

  • Consumer products requiring toughness and dimensional stability
