ABS-FR compound is made of ABS resin and flame retardant additives which are in different fire resistance levels according to UL94 standard: V0, V1, and V2.

ABS, or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, is a thermoplastic polymer known for its excellent processability, toughness, and impact strength. It is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including automotive parts, toys, and electronic housings.

ABS flame retardant compound is a combination of ABS that has been modified with flame retardant additives to increase its fire resistance. These additives are halogen-free and help to slow or prevent the spread of flames in the event of a fire. The flame retardant properties of the material are rated according to the UL94 standard, with V0 being the highest rating for flame retardancy, followed by V1 and V2.

EuroPlas offers a range of ABS flame retardant compounds with varying levels of flame retardancy and other additives to meet different product requirements. This material is commonly used in applications such as mobile chargers, electronic components, power sockets, earphones, and vacuum cleaners, where fire safety is a critical concern. In addition to its fire-retardant properties, ABS-FR also maintains the mechanical and physical properties of traditional ABS compounds.
