Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Production Costs - Q2 2023
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (a.k.a. ABS) is the largest selling engineering thermoplastic worldwide. ABS consists of a family of polybutadiene resin grafted with acrylonitrile and styrene. Property advantages from this polymer includes good processability, chemical resistance and thoughness. These properties can be optimized by adjusting the ratio of the three monomers which allows for incredible versatility to meet product requirements. While the polymer components coexist as two separate phases, ABS actually represents one of the industrially most important thermoplastic two-phase systems with an amorphous structure.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2023).
ABS from Butadiene, Acrylonitrile and Styrene (Emulsion Process)
This report presents the economics of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) polymer production in the United States using an emulsion process. In this process, butadiene is first polymerized in the presence of water, forming a latex. The polybutadiene latex is submitted to a grafting reaction with styrene and acrylonitrile monomers. The graft latex is mixed with a SAN Latex produced separately.
Details: 150 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ABS E11A target a 150 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
ABS from Polybutadiene, Acrylonitrile and Styrene (Mass Process)
This report assesses the economics of an industrial plant in the United States for the production of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) via a mass polymerization process. Initially, butadiene rubber is ground in a mill and dissolved in acrylonitrile and styrene. The mixture is submitted to a two-step copolymerization in the presence of a solvent.
Details: 120 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ABS E12A target a 120 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
ABS from Butadiene, Acrylonitrile and Styrene (Hybrid Process)
In this report, the process examined for the Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) production is a hybrid polymerization process in the United States. Initially, a solution of styrene and acrylonitrile is bulk prepolymerized with agitation. Polymerization is further conducted in suspension in water.
