ABS is a durable, opaque thermoplastic known for its excellent impact resistance, chemical stability, and ease of processing.
Widely used in automotive components, power tool housings, toys, appliance parts, and packaging, ABS is also popular in 3D printing (FDM), CNC machining, and injection molding due to its low production cost and machinability.
The styrene provides rigidity and surface gloss, while butadiene enhances toughness. ABS compounds can be easily modified with colorants, stabilizers, flame retardants, and reinforcing fillers, allowing tailored properties for a broad range of applications.
