ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene</b>. 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.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Butadiene</b>. Butadiene is a commodity mainly produced as a byproduct of ethylene crackers. More specifically, it is extracted from the C4 hydrocarbons stream in naphtha-based crackers. The largest single use of butadiene is in the production of SBR and styrene-butadiene latexes.</p> <b>Styrene</b>. Styrene is a largely available commodity generally produced from ethylbenzene by several means. One of the commercial routes for styrene production relies on the alkylation of benzene with ethylene for generating the ethylbenzene, which is then dehydrogenated to styrene in vapor phase with steam. </p> <b>Acrylonitrile</b>. Acrylonitrile is a molecule having a carbon-carbon double bond conjugated with a nitrile group. It is a very reactive compound, since it is polar (due to the presence of the nitrogen heteroatom) and unsaturated. Currently, acrylonitrile is mainly produced by the ammoxidation of propylene and by the ammoxidation of propane. Both processes generate acetonitrile and hydrogen cyanide as by-products. As a highly reactive chemical, acrylonitrile serves as an intermediate to produce a range of chemicals, including antioxidants, pharmaceuticals and especially polymers. Due to the possibility of spontaneous polymerization in the presence of strong alkali or when exposed to light, high-purity acrylonitrile product must be stored or transported with polymerization inhibitors. Storage tanks or containers may be constructed with carbon or stainless steel.</p>
