Study the effect of adhesion promoter / energy modifier additives on application performance properties of Nylon/ABS

Plastics Engineering & Technology

It is often desirable to paint or otherwise coat automotive components, especially those of the exterior body, in order to decorate them or protect them from degradation in the face of sunlight, moisture, heat and cold. To achieve longer lasting and more durable parts, it is important for these coatings to tightly adhere to the surface of the components. ABS is taken in the ratio of 100%,0%,70% and PA610 in the ratio of 0%, 100%, 30%. The compounding of PA610 / ABS is carried out at twin screw extruder and injection molded standard test specimens are prepared. The results of mechanical and thermal properties, sample characterization and that of thermal has given better result for the blend of 70% ABS, 30% PA 610, 0.5% SMA, 1% Adhesion Promoter and 30% Glass fiber. This application is widely used for coating/paint of Automobile, Warning labels to industrial equipment. Finally it was shown that by using above mentioned materials to matrix higher mechanical and thermal properties has achieved.
