What is Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)?
Application of ABS

Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is a terpolymer made from the polymerization of styrene and acrylonitrile in the presence of polybutadiene. Its ratio can be 15% to 35% acrylonitrile, 5% to 30% butadiene and 40% to 60% styrene.

ABS is one of the most widely used plastic raw materials due to its reasonable price and balanced mechanical and chemical properties. Other advantages of ABS include dimensional strength, high thermal resistance, and impact resistance.
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is actually the result of a stretch of polybutadiene cross-linked with shorter poly(styrene-acrylonitrile) chains. The data sheet of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is as follows:

"SD0150"

Applications of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

Due to its features such as high impact resistance, thermal performance, etc., this material is one of the most used materials in the production of plastic, which is used in the production of household equipment such as refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, electronic devices such as keyboards, printers, mice, etc. Laptops and computers are used.

Among the applications of ABS in automobiles and transportation, we can mention instrument panels, column trim, dashboard components, door linings and handles, seat backs, seat belt parts, etc., which are among high-use materials.

Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene has favorable mechanical properties such as impact resistance, toughness and strength. By changing the ratio of ABS gear components, it can be produced with different grades. In general, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene has useful properties in the temperature range of 20 to 80 degrees Celsius.

Production methods of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)

Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is produced in two ways:

In the first method, styrene-acrylonitrile copolymers are mixed with acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber. Typically, the rubber phase is broken and uniformly dispersed in small particles as the discontinuous phase in the continuous phase.

In the second method, which is used in most operations today, it provides greater versatility and the ability to custom design specific asset profiles. Acrylonitrile is grafted onto a butadiene or butadiene styrene copolymer backbone.
