Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) plastic is a common thermoplastic known for its strength and durability. It is made from three monomers: acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene. This combination gives ABS excellent impact resistance and toughness, making it suitable for various applications, including automotive parts, toys, and household items. ABS is also easy to mold and can be processed using techniques like injection molding and 3D printing. Its surface can be easily painted or finished, allowing for a wide range of aesthetic options. Additionally, ABS is resistant to chemicals and heat, enhancing its versatility in different environments.
