ABS Scrap is a very resilient plastic and does not corrode easily when it comes in contact with abrasive materials, ABS is often used for 3D printing purposes, keyboards of computers, lego toys, power tool housing, wall sockets, computer parts, automotive parts, luggage cases, aircraft applications, helmets, chairs,

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene often referred to as ABS is a type of plastic that is an opaque thermoplastic and an amorphous polymer. When we say thermoplastic, we mean that this type of plastic responds to heat in different manners. In the case of ABS, this plastic becomes liquid when it is subjected to 221 Fahrenheit degrees. What sets thermoplastics apart from other plastics is that they can be melted to their liquid form, cooled and again reheated without causing too much damage to their chemical composition. So ABS does not burn, it merely melts and turns into a liquid form. Once cooled, it goes back to its solid-state again. A thermoplastic like ABS is better than thermoset plastics because thermoset plastics can only be heated once (typically during the time it is being molded into a particular form).
