  • Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) (LG)

    A shatter-resistant or lighter alternative to glass, Poly Methyl Methacrylate also known as PMMA/Acrylic/Acrylic Glass/Acrylic Resin is a transparent thermoplastic. Chemically, it is the synthetic polymer of Methyl Methacrylate. Where extreme strength is not required, PMMA can be used as an economical alternative to Polycarbonate(PC).

  • Polyacetal (POM) (lUPITAL)

    Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal, polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts that require high stiffness, low friction and excellent dimensional stability. POM is a lightweight, low-friction, and wear-resistant thermoplastic with good physical and is often marketed and used as a metal substitute.

  • Polycarbonate (PC) (Makrolon)

    Polycarbonate(PC) is a particular group of thermoplastic polymers. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications. This polymer is highly transparent to visible light and has better light transmission characteristics than many kinds of glass. Polycarbonate is a very durable material & although it has high impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance.

  • Styrene Acrylonitrile Resin (SAN) (LG)

    Styrene Acrylonitrile Resin is a copolymer plastic consisting of styrene and Acrylonitrile; also known as SAN. Widely used in place of polystyrene owing to its greater thermal resistance; the chains of the polymer show alternating repeat units of styrene and acrylonitrile, and it is a copolymer.

    The relative composition is typically between 70 and 80% styrene and 20 to 30% acrylonitrile. Larger acrylonitrile content improves mechanical properties and chemical resistance.

  • Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) (LG)

    Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resins (ABS) are the largest-volume engineering thermoplastic resin. It acts as a bridge between commodity plastics like polystyrene and higher-performance engineering thermoplastics like polycarbonate.

    ABS is derived from acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene and carbon. Acrylonitrile is a synthetic monomer produced from propylene and ammonia; butadiene is a petroleum hydrocarbon obtained from the C4 fraction of steam cracking; styrene monomer is made by dehydrogenation of ethyl benzene — a hydrocarbon obtained in the reaction of ethylene and benzene.

  • Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA)

    Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) is a durable, flexible, transparent copolymer plastic, typically used as a shock absorber in tennis shoes. It can be recognized in many crocs brand shoes and accesories, in the form of a foam called ‘crocslite’. The foam is also commonly used as padding in equipment for various sports such as ski boots, hockey, boxing, and mixed martial arts. EVA is used in biomedical engineering applications as a drug delivery device used within the body. While the EVA is not biodegradable within the body, it is quite inert and causes little or no reaction following implantation.

  • Polyamide resin (PA6/PA66)

    Nylon 6-66, also referred to as PA6, PA66,Polyamide resin, is a type of nylon. Nylon comes in many types, the two most common for textile and plastics industries are: nylon 6 and nylon 6,6. Nylon 6,6 has a melting point of 265°C, high for a synthetic fiber’ this fact makes it resistant to heat and friction and enables it to withstand heat-setting for twist retention. Its long molecular chain results in more sites for hydrogen bonds, creating chemical “springs”, making it very resilient; it has a dense structure with small, evenly spaced pores. This means that nylon 6,6 is difficult to dye, but once dyed it has superior colorfastness and is less susceptible to fading from sunlight and ozone and to yellowing from nitrous oxide.

  • Transparent ABS (Toray)

    ‘TOYOLAC’ is a well known ABS thermoplastics resin which consists of Acrylonitrile (A), Butadiene (B) and Styrene (S). Toray always strives to develop new grade by optimizing respective features of A, B and S to fulfill customer requirement.

    ‘Toyolac’ is widely used in automotive products, media products, OA machines, amusement products and other applications. ‘Toyolac’ consists of a variety of grades but this technical guide will focus only on Transparent Grade ABS, ‘Toyolac’ 920 555 which is widely demanded in various sectors.

    Toray is the earliest company to start manufacturing and sales of transparent ABS in Japan domestic market. Thus, we have accumulated more than 20 years of experience in transparent ABS technology and know how. We do greatly appreciate your consideration to evaluate ‘Toyolac’ 920 555 in line with the expected expansion in demand for transparent ABS in future.
