Polymer Resources PRL PC/ABS-UT PC/ABS Thermoplastic Alloy
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; ABS Polymer; Polycarbonate/ABS Alloy, Unreinforced
Material Notes:	PC/ABS (polycarbonate / acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene terpolymer blend) is a thermoplastic alloy of polycarbonate and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene. Both of these materials are well known amorphous plastics. Alloying these two materials enhances processability, and provides non-halo flame retardancy. Information provided by Polymer Resources.
