Leading Manufacturer, Supplier & Retailer of ABS Granule and High Impact Polystyrene.
Acrylonitrile Butadienestyrene, popularly known as ABS granules is an engineering polymer that has great fluidity to take up any shape, and provides a good shine and colour. ABS stands out for its strong nature, thermal stability and its ability to conform to any rigid matrix. ABS is developed by polymerizing acrylonitrile and styrene, along with the presence of polybutadiene. The proportions vary, but the composition makes ABS more robust than pure polystyrene.
The most important properties of ABS are its durability and impact resistance feature, although various modifications can be made to amplify these properties. ABS has excellent stability under limited loads, and displays valuable characteristics within -20 C to 80 C.
ABS comes in two different grades one for extrusion, and the other for injection moulding. However, ABS final properties are determined by the settings under which they have been processed. For instance, moulding at a lower temperature improves its strength, whereas moulding at a higher temperature enhances its gloss and shine. Certain additives can also be mixed to make it stronger, protect against ultraviolet radiation, prevent oxidisation, or change its colour.
ABS is largely used for mechanical purposes, but it also finds its way in electrical usages. Customers have a wide choice of colours and shades - each with their own key characteristics, allowing them to handpick or customise the granules, depending on their requirements. The blue and green granules are used for making any kind of plastic item. The yellow and orange granules have massive thermal stability, while the red granules are highly consistent in their composition. Violet granules are useful for the electrical industry. Given the extensive range, these granules have a high procurement demand from customers worldwide.
ABS polymers do not welt when exposed to alkalis, alcohols, hydrochloric/phosphoric/aqueous acids, and to vegetable/animal/mineral oils. Furthermore, ABS granules are light weight, and they do not get affected by atmospheric humidity or temperature (provided its within the acceptable range).
High Impact Polystyrene is a plastic material that is inexpensive and used for structural applications that demand low strength. It is tough and rigid with high impact strength. It is employed in applications where it can be guillotined, punched, routered, or sawn with ease. The manufacturing process of HIPS involves several stages. First, the raw material is taken in a feed tank where it is lubricated, toned, and properly mixed. The next stages of manufacturing are Pre Polymerisation, Polymerisation, Preheating, Devolatilization, Extrusion and Pelletisation, and Product Packing. Raw materials used in the manufacture of HIPS are Styrene, Zinc Stearate, and Liquid Paraffin. Zinc Stearate is used as an Internal Lubricant and Liquid Paraffin is used as a Chain Transition agent.
Usage
High Impact Polystyrene has severalunique qualities like strength, hygiene, heat retention, visual appeal, resistance to warm water, etc. which makes it ideal to be used in the Food Industry. Applications include Yogurt Holders, Plastic Cutlery, Salad Bowls, etc. High Impact Polystyrene is also used in several packaging applications like CD cases and refrigerator linings. In the Medical Industry, HIPS is used for making trays. Other items that use HIPS in manufacturing include Printed Graphics, Models and Prototypes, Point-of-Purchase Displays, Shelves, Kiosks, and Fixtures, and Thermoformed Machine Housings and Parts. Major products in the Automotive Industry that use High Impact Polystyrene are Instrument Panels and Fittings, and Gasoline Tanks. A lot of popular consumer products like Appliance Components, Toys, Tv, and Audio-Visual Equipment parts, Recording Tape Cassettes, Bicycle Trailers, and Toys are manufactured using High Impact Polystyrene.
