Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is an amorphous polymer made by emulsion or mass polymerization of acrylonitrile and styrene in the presence of polybutadiene. The most important ABS properties are impact resistance and toughness.
Polyethylene (PE) is one of most widely used plastics in the world and has a huge spread over industries, segments and applications. PE enables food to be packed economically with a prolonged shelf life, chemicals to be safely transported and distributed, clean water to reach all parts of the population, new cars to be protected from scratches and a myriad of other useful applications used in our everyday lives.
Polypropylene (PP) was invented in 1954 by Professor Natta and was firstly commercially produced under the brand name Moplen by Montedison in 1957. Polypropylene (PP) is easy to process, has a low density and is relatively cheap versus other polymers.
Polystyrene is one of the oldest thermoplastic polymers dating back to the 1930’s.
