ABS plastic raw materials or Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is a common thermoplastic polymer typically used for injection molding applications. This engineering plastic is popular due to its low production cost and the ease with which the material is machined by plastic manufacturers. Better yet, its natural benefits of affordability and machinability do not hinder the ABS plastic raw materials’ desired properties:


ABS plastic raw materials

Impact Resistance


Structural Strength and Stiffness


Chemical Resistance


Excellent High and Low-Temperature Performance


Great Electrical Insulation Properties


Easy to Paint and Glue


ABS plastic attains these physical attributes through the initial creation process. By polymerizing styrene and acrylonitrile in the presence of polybutadiene, chemical “chains” attract each other and bind together to make ABS stronger. This combination of materials and plastics provides ABS with superior hardness, gloss, toughness, and resistance properties, greater than that of pure polystyrene. View a detailed ABS Material Data Sheet to learn more about ABS’s physical, mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties.


ABS plastic raw materials are advantageous in a wide variety of industries; however, certain physical limitations restrict the materials used in certain products and applications. These shortcomings include:


abs plastic raw materialsWeatherability (damaged by sunlight)


Solvent Resistance


Hazardous When Burned


Limited Uses in Association with Food Industry


Higher Price Than Polystyrene or Polyethylene



Thankfully, these limited disadvantages have not prevented ABS from providing effective solutions to thousands of industries and quality products for millions of different applications. The broad spectrum of ABS’s involvement in common products and applications that assist daily life is staggering. Here is a small selection of well-known products and applications that rely on ABS material: LEGO bricks, small kitchen appliances, keyboard keycaps, automotive components, protective headgear, and musical instruments. Just to name a few!


All these products and applications are possible due to ABS’s ability to be injection molded and extruded, one of the Plastic Extrusion Technology's many capabilities. With over 100 years in the plastics industry, Plastic Extrusion Technologies is one of many plastic manufacturers that use ABS material to create quality products and provide plastic solutions to companies around the world.
