Polycarbonate/ABS Alloys: Production, Testing and Applications—An Overview
Abstract: The commercial production of polycarbonate (PC) began in 1958; the commercialization of the polycarbonate/ABS blends started in 1977. The incorporation of ABS to PC minimizes its drawbacks without altering its superior mechanical properties. Blending of PC and ABS also generates other useful characteristics i.e. glossiness and low temperature toughness. Blending of both the polymers is being carried out in a twin-screw extruder or in a common solvent like Tetrahydrofuran (THF).Nowadays …
