ABS is another preferred type of engineering plastic that is valued for its chemical and thermal stability, strength, toughness, and glossy finish.  Its host of desirable properties make it a versatile material.  It is used in everything from consumer products like toys and bicycle helmets to automotive applications such as interior trim pieces, housings for electronics, and more. After adding glass fiber to ABS, the rigidity, heat resistance and dimensional stability of the composite are significantly improved. In addition, the cost performance of ABS plus glass fiber is extremely good, which can meet the needs of manufacturers while reducing costs. About ABS-LGF compounds The main application scope of modified ABS: 1.  Auto parts: instrument panels, fenders, car interiors, car lights, reversing mirrors, car audio; 2.  Electronic and electrical components: IT equipment, OA equipment shells, converters, etc., power sockets, etc.; 3.  Electronic appliances: switches, power switches, controllers, monitors, monitor housings, electrical housings, electrical brackets; 4.  Home appliances: electrical components, electrical control boxes What Are the Advantages of ABS Injection Molding? The advantages of ABS injection molding are: 1. High Productivity - Efficiency Injection molding is a highly efficient and productive manufacturing technology and is the preferred method of manufacturing ABS parts. The process creates limited waste and can produce large volumes of parts with limited human interaction. 2. Design of Complex Parts Injection molding can produce multi-featured, complex components that can include metal inserts or overmolded soft-grip handholds.  3. Increased Strength ABS is a strong, lightweight thermoplastic that is widely used in a number of industries due to these properties. As such, injection molding in ABS is ideal for applications that require increased durability and overall mechanical strength. 4. Flexibility of Color and Material ABS is easily colored with a wide range of colors. It must be noted however that ABS has poor weathering resistance and can be degraded by UV light and prolonged outdoor exposure. Fortunately, ABS can be painted and even electroplated with metal to improve its environmental resistance.  5. Decreased Waste Injection molding is inherently low-wastage production technology due to the large production volumes that injection molding was designed for. When millions of parts are made per year, any amount of wastage adds up to a significant cost over time. The only wastage is the material in the sprue, runners, and the flashing between mold halves.  6. Low Cost of Labor Due to the highly automated nature of injection molding, very limited human intervention is required. Reduced human intervention results in reduced labor costs. This reduced labor cost ultimately results in a low cost per part.

Depending on the end use, the finished products can be used for injection molding,extrusion, molding, etc., or directly used for plastic instead of steel and thermoset products.

PPS is a high-performance, tough engineering plastic with great dimensional and thermal stability, as well as a wide operating temperature range of up to 260 °C and good chemical resistance. Moreover, PPS, like most other thermoplastics, is an electrical insulator. Its ability to be used at high temperatures coupled with its thermal stability makes PPS great for applications such as semiconductor components in machinery, bearings, and valve seats. About PPS-LGF compounds PPS plastic (polyphenylene sulfide), English name: Polyphenylenesulfide, is a thermoplastic special engineering plastic with excellent comprehensive properties. Its outstanding features are high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and superior mechanical properties. The product will make a metallic sound when it is dropped to the ground. . Pure PPS is rarely used alone due to its brittle performance. Most of the PPS used is its modified variety. Glass fiber reinforced PPS is one of them. PPS lengthened glass fiber (LGF) composite material has the advantages of high toughness, low warpage, fatigue resistance, and good product appearance. It can be used in water heater impellers, pump casings, joints, valves, chemical pump impellers and casings, cooling water impellers and Shells, home appliance parts, etc. Automotive industry Applications: Due to its excellent mechanical properties, thermoplastic carbon fiber is widely used in the automotive field of fuel system components, sensors, shell components. On the one hand, it is because of the high strength and stiffness of PPS-LCF, and the finished parts are not easy to damage. On the other hand, PPS-LCF also has a relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion to ensure the stability of the finished product. In addition, PPS-LCF also has very good corrosion and heat resistance, making the application life of the finished product longer. Industrial Applications: In the industrial field, it is mainly used in the parts of equipment, such as chemical processing equipment, air pumps, gaskets, valves, etc. In addition to the high strength of the PS-LCF, it is also because the parts made by the PS-LCF have very good self-lubricating properties, which is very important for mechanical parts. Therefore, compared with the traditional carbon fiber material products, the performance has been greatly improved. The wide range of applications of PPS-LCF include aerospace, automotive manufacturing, electronic equipment, chemical and medical fields. Basic Performance of PPS-LGF 1  Excellent overall performance.  PPS resin is a crystalline polymer with high hardness. Its crystal content is about 65% and its density is 1.34g/cm^3. It has excellent mechanical properties. Its tensile strength and bending strength are better than those of PA, PC, PBT, etc. It has extremely high rigidity and creep resistance. The mechanical properties will better after adding glass fiber reinforcement. 2 Excellent heat resistance. Its melting point can reach 275~291℃, and its heat distortion temperature is 135℃. After glass fiber reinforcement, its heat distortion temperature can reach 260℃. In air, polyphenylene sulfide reaches the weakening temperature at about 400°C, and polyphenylene sulfide begins to decompose in air at 700°C. The long-term use temperature is 200~240℃, and the thermal stability of long-term continuous use is better than all current engineering plastics. 3 The dielectric strength is better. PPS has a symmetrical molecular structure, non-polarity, and low water absorption, so its electrical insulation is very good. Compared with other engineering plastics, its dielectric constant is small, and its arc resistance is equivalent to that of thermosetting plastics. It can be used in high temperature, high humidity, frequency conversion, etc. Under harsh conditions, PPS can still maintain excellent electrical insulation. 4 preservative. Because PPS has a high degree of crystallinity, it has excellent chemical resistance and is insoluble in any organic solvent below 200°C. In addition to strong oxidizing acids, it can withstand the erosion of various acids, alkalis, and salts. After being soaked in various chemicals for a long time, it still maintains high strength.
