Our materials
ABS
Acrylonitrile – Butadiene – Styrene (ABS) is a mixture of SAN block copolymer with a butadiene rubber. ABS has a higher impact resistance but lower rigidity than SAN. The properties of ABS vary widely depending on how much butadiene rubber and acrylonitrile are used in the copolymer.
