SAN: part of the Starex Range
SAN, a copolymer of styrene and acrylonitrile, has excellent transparency, coupled with mechanical strength and chemical resistance. SAN is like another member of the styrenic family, crystalline polystyrene. However, SAN is tougher, has more chemical resistance and better UV light resistance than crystalline polystyrene.
PC/ABS alloys are blends of polycarbonate (PC) and ABS polymers. The addition of flame retardant additives and glass fibre reinforcement further extends the application areas for this versatile alloy. PC/ABS alloys are characterized by their excellent impact resistance and heat resistance. The mouldability of PC/ABS alloys is excellent and in addition, PC/ABS alloys have an isotropic shrinkage characteristic, meaning that the mould shrinkage is uniform in all directions, which gives low warpage, dimensionally stable parts.
