What is ABS 3D Printing?

ABS is one of many polymer filaments that FDM and FFF printers can employ. At the proper temperature, it is easy to mold into nearly any shape. ABS solidifies evenly and cures without any post-processing. Users tend to choose it for its relatively high-temperature resistance and flexibility. 

ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is probably the most common filament used in 3D printing. It is especially valuable in strong plastic parts that must remain resilient in the face of temperature swings. It is mainly used in FDM (fused deposition modeling) 3D printers. ABS is a thermoplastic polymer composed of three monomers: acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene. The material was first patented in the 1940s and very quickly gained popularity.

ABS is used in many industries today because of its flexibility, moldability, and strength. You can find it in such varied products as Lego toys, home appliances, and piping systems. Compared to most inexpensive polymers, ABS is quite flexible, resists high temperatures, and can easily be machined. In the realm of 3D printing, it is valued because it prints quickly and is more durable than many other options. This article will define ABS 3D printing filament, examine its composition and properties, and compare it to other 3D printing filaments.

What Are the Properties of ABS Filament?

ABS filament is a commonly used filament for general-purpose printing. Listed below are some of its properties:

  1. Has high heat tolerance that can withstand hot temperatures.

  2. ABS-printed parts are extra tough and can survive multiple impacts. It has good impact resistance even at low temperatures.

  3. ABS filaments have a superior melt flow.

  4. Good abrasion and strain resistance.
