Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR Rubber) Dealers in Kishanpara, Rajkot

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) ABS is another commonly used 3D printer material. Best used for making durable parts that need to withstand higher temperatures. In comparison to PLA, ABS plastic is less ‘brittle.’ It can also be post-processed with acetone to provide a glossy finish. When 3D printing with ABS filament a heated printing surface is recommended, as ABS plastic will contract when cooled leading to warped parts. ABS has been in use widely for different applications these days. Some of the common examples are automotive components, pipes manufacturing, electronic assemblies, kitchen appliances, protective headgear, musical instruments, and protective carry cases and toys. It is a very strong and durable material which is quite resistant to heat and flexible. 3D printing can process ABS plastics to operate with hot end at around 210 Deg. C. of temperature. So, a 3D printer can process ABS which is well loaded with heated printbed to prevent cracking or warping of materials. ABS is very affordable consumable and is the best choice for 3D printing community. It is best suited for different purposes, especially because it can be pained and sanded easily. The broken or printed parts can be glued well and is soluble with acetone. It generally comes in black, white, yellow, blue, and green colors. It can also have matte appearance or can be transparent. But it is non-biodegradable, petroleum-based plastic which can be recycled. It creates mild fumes that may irritate sensitive skin. So, it is important to install the printed in a properly ventilated area on a specific fume hood. If it is no longer used, store it in airtight container. It attracts moisture and it can affect print quality.
