Pi-Blend (Eroblend)

Pi-Blend (Eroblend)

Polycarbonate/acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (PC-ABS) is an engineering thermoplpastic created from a blend of PC and ABS. The unique balance of properties is dependent on the ratio of PC to ABS in the blend. Engineers and product teams turn to PC-ABS when their use case requires the toughness and heat-resistance offered by PC along with the ductility and processability offered by ABS. PC-ABS is also a more cost-effective alternative to PC. PC-ABS plastic is used to make Automotive Interior Parts, Alloy Wheel, Connection Devices, Overhead and middle consoles, Knee bolsters, TV frames, Laptop monitor enclosures, Phone exteriors

Product Characterstics

  • PI – BLEND/ Eroblend Key Characteristics is low-temperature toughness, heat resistance and thermal stability, and ease of processing at lower cost are generated. The small addition of ABS to PC helps in improving processability, impact resistance, and cost, while adding a small amount of PC to ABS results in better thermal and mechanical properties Polymer blending has proved itself as an efficient way of developing materials with desired enhanced properties. It is an economical way of producing new materials with the required properties.
  • The behavior change of blends can be evaluated with the change in the composition of blends. While blending ABS with PC, ABS grafted butadiene chains usually stay insoluble, though they are bonded by styrene-acrylonitrile side chains. This imparts remarkable physical properties in the blends.
  • Mechanical characteristics (hardness, elastic modulus, creep rate, and creep) of neat ABS, PC and blends of ABS/PC blends through nano-indentation. In the past, work has been done to understand the behavior and mechanical properties of ABS, PC, and their blends but there is limited data available on the surface mechanical characterization of ABS and PC. Therefore, this work mainly focuses on the nano-indentation study of neat ABS, PC, and three different blends of ABS/PC. ABS and PC blends were prepared in the lab and their FTIR analysis was done. Later, all samples were experimented through nano-indentation to check the load-displacement, indentation hardness, elastic modulus, and creep behavior.

    • Product Processing

    The most common processing method for PC/ABS is injection molding, although other techniques such as extrusion and thermoforming can also be employed.
