ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a strong, versatile thermoplastic known for its durability and excellent moldability. It combines the rigidity of acrylonitrile, the toughness of butadiene, and the smooth finish of styrene—resulting in a material that performs well under pressure while maintaining an attractive appearance.
Ideal for plastic injection molding, ABS flows easily into complex molds, offers outstanding dimensional stability, and delivers high impact resistance even at low temperatures. Its balance of strength, precision, and cost-effectiveness makes it a top choice for producing industrial components, automotive parts, and consumer products.
Acetal (Polyoxymethylene or POM) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic known for its exceptional strength, stiffness, and low friction properties. It offers excellent dimensional stability and resists wear, making it ideal for parts that require precision and durability under load.
In plastic injection molding, Acetal stands out for its smooth flow characteristics, which allow it to fill intricate molds with tight tolerances. It maintains strength and rigidity across a wide temperature range and resists moisture, fuels, and many chemicals. These qualities make Acetal a preferred material for gears, bearings, valves, and other mechanical components used in demanding industrial and automotive applications.
