Abstract
- ABS plastics, as the name indicates, are a family of thermoplastics which are composed of acrylonitrile (A), butadiene (B), and styrene (S). The properties of ABS are determined by these constituent monomers: acrylonitrile imparts chemical and heat resistance; styrene imparts rigidity, hardness, and process-ability; and butadiene imparts impact strength. By varying the proportions of these constituents and the manner by which they are combined, ABS can be tailored to satisfy the requirements of a wide variety of applications.
