What is ABS Material？
ABS PA-737 is a high-quality ABS material developed specifically for injection molding and performs well in a variety of industrial scenarios.
1、ABS Material Properties
Appearance: ABS PA-737 material has smooth surface and beautiful appearance, which meets the appearance requirements of high-end products.
Fluidity: Good fluidity, can be quickly and evenly filled in complex molds, improve molding efficiency and accuracy.
Processing performance: high processing stability, good thermal stability, easy to achieve high precision molding.
Processing speed: With fast processing characteristics, suitable melt viscosity and crystallization characteristics, can shorten the production cycle.
Flame retardant: up to HB flame retardant standard, under specific test conditions, the burning speed can be controlled, and the fire source will self-extinguish after withdrawal to ensure safety.
2、ABS Material Application
Automotive industry: ABS material Used for automotive interior and exterior decoration and some functional parts, taking into account beauty, durability and safety.
Office equipment manufacturing: Suitable for office equipment shell, improve appearance and reliability.
Home appliance industry: Manufacture home appliance housings to enhance aesthetics, safety and service life.
Thin-walled products production: Due to good fluidity and fast processing characteristics, to meet the packaging, electronics and other industries of thin-walled products demand.
3、The effect of additives
Add lubricant and release agent to enhance processing performance. Lubricants reduce friction between molecular chains, improving fluidity and minimizing equipment wear. Meanwhile, the release agent forms an isolation film between the product and the mold, facilitating smooth release, increasing production efficiency, and ensuring better product quality.
