The family of plastics is huge, and ABS plastics are significantly different from ordinary plastics in many aspects.
Ordinary plastics are a broad concept, including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc. They are polymerized from simple monomers and have relatively simple structures. ABS plastics are terpolymers of acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene, made through complex copolymerization reactions, with complex chemical structures and integrating the characteristics of three monomers.
ABS
In terms of performance, ordinary plastics have different properties. For example, PE has good corrosion resistance and electrical insulation, but poor heat resistance; PP has good heat resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, but is not impact resistant. ABS plastics have excellent comprehensive properties, and its impact strength is 2-3 times that of ordinary plastics. It can withstand greater impact and is not easy to break; it has good heat resistance and can be used for a long time in an environment of 60-80℃; it also has good chemical resistance, electrical insulation and dimensional stability.
In terms of production technology, the production process of ordinary plastics is usually batching, mixing, molding, etc., which is relatively simple. ABS plastics need to go through multiple processes such as batching, mixing, extrusion, granulation, and injection molding. The process is complex and the cost is higher.
From the perspective of application areas, ordinary plastics are widely used in packaging (such as food bags, plastic bottles), construction (such as pipes, insulation materials), household items (such as plastic tableware) and other scenarios with low performance requirements. Due to its excellent performance, ABS plastics are often used in automotive interiors (dashboards, door panels), electronic equipment housings (computers, mobile phones), office equipment (keyboards, printer housings), toy manufacturing and other fields to meet high requirements for strength, impact resistance and appearance.
