polybutadiene co-styrene is a _________ polymer.?

Answer 1

Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene can be found as a graft copolymer, in which styrene-acrylonitrile polymer is formed in a polymerization system in the presence of polybutadiene rubber latex; the final product is a complex mixture consisting of styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer, a graft polymer of styrene-acrylonitrile and polybutadiene and some unchanged polybutadiene rubber. There are, therefore, many variables to the process besides the different positions of the starting materials, so this technique is capable of producing polymers with a much wider range of properties. [Brighton et al. 1979] ABS can be made by blending, the technique involved mechanical blending by mixing a butadiene-acrylonitrile rubber with styrene-acrylonitrile resins, the process is being carried out under such conditions that the two polymers underwent some grafting. This technique is rather limited and has been largely suppressed by chemical process. [Brighton et al. 1979]
