Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, commonly known as ABS, is a type of thermoplastic polymer. It is made from three monomers: acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene. This combination gives ABS its strength, toughness, and resistance to impact, making it a popular choice for various applications, including toys, automotive parts, and household goods. ABS is known for its ease of processing and can be molded into complex shapes. It is also lightweight and can be easily colored, which enhances its versatility in design. Additionally, ABS is resistant to chemicals and heat, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
