Styron Magnum™ 3490 ABS, High Gloss

MAGNUM® ABS resins are thermoplastic materials which provide an excellent balance of processability, impact resistance and heat resistance as imparted by the various polymer compositions. MAGNUM ABS resin are available in a wide range of melt flow rates, impact strength and heat resistance for both high and low gloss applications manufactured by injection molding, sheet or profile extrusion and thermoforming.The Automotive grades of MAGNUM ABS resins offer a wide range of gloss, viscosity, impact strength and heat properties for use in numerous automotive applications. Melt flow rates from 1 to 12 g/10 min, impact strengths from 130 to 590 J/m and heat distortion temperatures from 77.C to 90.C are available. Available primarily as natural plus concentrates, MAGNUM ABS resins are used in a wide variety of automotive applications including structural instrument panels, consoles, pillars and exterior trim parts requiring painting and plating.MAGNUM 3490 ABS resin is a high gloss, medium impact resin with good flow characteristics. Using technology different from the other automotive grades, MAGNUM 3490 ABS resin is often selected for automotive trim where good adhesion and smooth surfaces are required for painting and plating.Data provided by Dow Chemical.This product line was spun off from Dow Chemical to Styron in 2010.
