How is the UV resistance of ABS
Author:
ABS (polyacrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer) is a commonly used engineering plastic that is widely used in various fields, including automotive parts, electronic equipment shells, household appliances, etc. Here are some common pieces of information about the ultraviolet (UV) resistance of ABS:
ABS plastics generally have poor UV resistance. After prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation, ABS may experience color changes, rough surfaces, surface cracks, and decreased strength. This is mainly because ultraviolet rays can cause chemical reactions such as molecular chain breakage and oxidation in materials, resulting in the degradation of physical properties.
In order to improve the UV resistance of ABS, the following measures can usually be taken:
1. Add ultraviolet stabilizer: In the manufacture of ABS products, ultraviolet stabilizers can be added, these compounds can absorb or scatter ultraviolet rays, thereby slowing down the destructive effect of ultraviolet rays on ABS.
2. Surface coating: For applications that require higher UV resistance, you can consider coating a layer of anti-ultraviolet protective coating on the surface of ABS to block ultraviolet rays from acting directly on ABS.
3. Replace the material and replace it with a PC/ABS alloy material with better UV resistance.
