Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is a thermoplastic polymer made from a mixture of three monomers – acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene. It is known for its strength, toughness, and resistance to impact and heat. ABS is commonly used in the manufacture of automotive parts, toys, electronic housings, and household appliances. It can also be easily molded, machined, and welded, making it a versatile material for a variety of applications. ABS is also relatively inexpensive compared to other engineering plastics.
