Starex ABS

starex® is the Styrene product brand of LOTTE Chemical, representing the company’s efforts to put together customer-centered technologies and know-how. starex® covers a wide range of product groups including ABS, ASA while offering high-functionality options available in its diverse lineups, in a departure from the conventional resin products.

ABS Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene

starex® ABS has excellent impact strength, moldability and paintability, and is regarded as a very practical material thanks to its wide applications in various fields. In general, starex® ABS has modulus and heat resistance, and LOTTE Chemical offers a variety of ABS lineups depending on required features such as general purpose, extrusion, flame retardant, heat resistance, and plating/painting.

General PurposeABS

ABS, which is made up of AN, BD, and SM, has excellent machinability and is thus a material that can be applied for various uses.

Applications

Extrusion ABS

starex® Extrusion ABS is most suitable for refrigerator liners and construction components.
The plastic has good sheet extrusion stability, chemical resistance and vacuum moldability.

Applications

Flame Retardant ABS

starex® Flame Retardant ABS is specially formulated to have the self-extinguishability making it much safer for the use in the electrical & electronic Applications. starex® Flame Retardant ABS is take its lead in the global market thanks to its excellent balance of mechanical properties and processability.

Applications

Heat Resistant ABS

starex® heat-resistant ABS is a product that strengthened heat resistance by applying SAN having high conductivity to general ABS that has outstanding utility features such as machinability, impact-resistance, etc., but is weak against heat.

Applications

Metal Plating/Painting ABS

In general, ABS is a suitable material for metal plating. In consideration of better productivity, however, the material should be more easily etched and have better adhesion strength. starex® Metal Plating ABS generates uniform anchor holes during the etching process and has excellent adhesion strength making it possible to achieve higher productivity and lower metal plating rejections.
