The ABS three monomer system yields a good balance of properties.
Styrene contributes ease of processing characteristics, acrylonitrile
imparts chemical resistance and increased surface hardness, and the
butadiene contributes impact strength and overall toughness. ABS is a
hard, tough and rigid material that is part of the styrenic family.
When
a
dissipative thermoplastic polymer
is blended with
ABS an
Inherently Dissapitive Polymer (IDP)
is created
which
forms a molecular-scale, interpenetrating polymer
network which carries charge. The resulting IDP provides a
dissipation path throughout the photomask compact. Pozzetta offers
photomask compacts in ABS IDP’s to customers who need excellent ESD
properties that include low tribocharge results and good surface
Resistivity. |
