GLOBAL AUTOMOTIVE BIO ABS RESIN MARKET

 

INTRODUCTION 

ABS is a thermoplastic polymer used extensively in injection molding. ABS combines the elasticity as well as stiffness of polybutadiene elastomer with the rigidity and toughness of polystyrene and acrylonitrile materials.

 

Plastic for electricity transmission parts is the most common ABS resin used in electronics. Boxes, casings, wire channels, plastics enclosures, as well as other items fall into this category.

 

ABS polymers are frequently used during semiconductors because they are impact resistant, robust, lightweight, and flame retardant.

 

Furthermore, the shrinking of electrical components, combined with greater safety requirements across sectors, is likely to boost ABS resin consumption in optoelectronic devices.

GLOBAL AUTOMOTIVE BIO ABS RESIN MARKET NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

 

To fulfil the needs of the automobile sector, ELIX Polymers has produced a new generation acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene/polycarbonate (ABS/PC)blend. When compared to PC/ABS, ELIX Ultra HH 4115 HI ABS/PC can purportedly help achieve considerable weight reductions through lower density, as well as cost savings, processing benefits, and very low emissions and odour.

 

The car industry’s continued quest for weight savings is fueling the trend of replacing PC/ABS parts with ABS/PC mixes, particularly for interior components. When compared to PC/ABS, the latest generation ELIX Polymers Ultra HH4115HI ABS/PC material is said to have various advantages.

 

Ultra HH 4115 HI also performs well in ISO6603-2 (puncture impact behaviour) tests at various temperatures for crash-relevant items such as interior pillars. Several luxury automotive manufacturers have rated the appearance of fracture as extremely positive.

 

Several significant car OEMs have already evaluated and approved ELIX Ultra HH 4115HI. According to the GS93016 ABS+PC heat resistance standard, BMW authorised it, and the first serial projects are already using the new grade.

 

In addition, according to TL52231, Audi investigated emissions and odour characteristics with positive findings, and the material is deemed extremely interesting for lower instrument panel parts, centre console parts, and door panel parts.

 

 

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Polymeric materials are increasingly being used in vehicles, and this trend is projected to continue over the projection period.

 

The use of synthetic polymers allows for additional design flexibility and provides a safe geometrical and cost-effective option for component fabrication.

 

ABS is employed in every section of a car, including internal components, engine block components, exterior components, and superstructure.

 

Furthermore, ABS plastic is frequently used in aeroplane panels and baggage compartments. 

 

LG Chemicals is a prominent developer of the latest integrated technologies focusing on better smarter sensing and ABS-oriented technology for the future.

 

The PCR ABS is an environmentally friendly product line made from recycled ABS. PCR ABS has excellent injection molding capabilities, which are comparable to and as dependable as regular ABS.

 

It may be used in black and white on cross printers, purifiers, as well as a variety of other electrical & mechanical items.

 

The MRC380D5 plastic injection product has a 50 percent PCR resin content, physical qualities that are comparable to normal ABS, great fluidity, as well as a black colour. 

 

SABIC provides core technical breakthroughs that allow diagnostic and analysis of automotive oriented ABS requirements wherein the technology of CYCOLAC resin is a tunability structural material with remarkable aesthetics, flowing, hardness, good mechanical, good colour ability, resistance to abrasion, and temperature resistance.

 

The FDA has given its approval. Because of the versatility provided by the three polymer groups, the property profile may be customized to satisfy a wide range of finished demands.
