Overview
ABS resin, with its excellent processability, impact
strength, rigidity,easy coloration and, in particular,
excellent surface gloss is widely used in various electrical,
electronic and commodity parts for which a good appearance
is needed. The appearance of products is mainly determined
by three factors : resin properties, mold surface smoothness
and molding conditions. Starex High Gloss ABS provides
you with resin that possesses not only super high gloss
properties but also antistatic capability and processability
as well. |
Features
1) Stability in Quality
Starex Super Gloss ABS is very stable regarding such
qualities as homogeneity in material property and
stability in coloration since it is produced throughly
automated up-to-date processes under strict quality
control supervision.
2) Unique Characteristics of Each Grade
There are four grades of starex High Gloss ABS available.
Each grade is distinguished by the level of gloss
(regular & super), antistatic capability, and
high flexural strength.
3) Excellent Processability
The materials display excellent processability since
they fortify productivity in such a way that high-cycle
molding can be done.
4) Excellent Jet
Starex Super Gloss ABS provides excellent jet with
an outstanding gloss which exceeds international standards.
5) Excellent Scratch-proof Characteristics
Since starex High Gloss ABS shows excellent flexural
strength and hardness,the material displays excellent
scratch-proof characteristics, and the SG-0790 is
the best material in this regard.
6) Excellent Secondary Processability
The SG-0780 and SG-0790 starex Super Gloss ABS grades
display excellent adhesion characteristics during
such activities as thermal ultrasonic welding.

Properties
1) Mechanical
All starex Super Gloss ABS grades are designed with
higher tensile strength, flexural strength, hardness
and creep resistance than general purpose ABS.
2) Thermal
Compared with general-purpose ABS grades, the level
of residual stress is lower and the thermally induced
discoloration is minimal. In particular, the thermal
properties of the SG-0780 and SG-0790 grades are comparable
to those of medium heat-resistance grades.
3) Gloss
The gloss characteristics of ABS is dependent on the
surface roughness of the mold cavity, amount of gas
generated, melt pressure and homogeneity of pigment
distribution. Starex High Gloss ABS shows excellent
gloss due to its unique compounding process and fortification
with special additives. Particularly, the gloss of
SG-grades is comparable to that of U.V. coating.
4) Antistatic Characteristics
Products using High Gloss ABS usually also have antistatic
properties. We have successfully developed Starex
HG-0761, which satisfies both high gloss and antistatic
requirements.
5) Scratch-Proof Characteristics
Since most parts found in home appliances and commodities
are made of high gloss ABS and are prone to scratches.
Cheil industries developed the SG-0780 and SG-0790
grades with scratch-proof characteristics that will
eliminate the problems stated above.
6) Chemical Resistance under Stress
Since most high gloss ABS resins are used in home
appliances and commodities, it should be resistant
to oil stuffs such as salad oil and DOP.
