ABS Plastics (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene)

ABS Plasticis a copolymer of Acrylonitrile, Butadiene, and Styrene. ABS plastics generally possess medium strength and performance and medium cost; ABS is often used as the cost and performance dividing line between standard plastics (PVC, polyethylene, polystyrene, etc.) and engineering plastics (acrylic, nylon, acetal, etc.). ABS polymers can be given a range of properties, depending on the ratio of the monomeric constituents and the molecular level connectivity. It is tough, hard and rigid and has good chemical resistance and dimensional stability. It also is creep resistant, inexpensive, electroplatable, has moderate strength, and has a tendency to stress crack.
