MAGNUM™ ABS
Magnum™ ABS from Styron is an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) manufactured with continued mass polymerisation technology.
This results in a resin with a highly consistent, white base color resulting in a combination of excellent processability and aesthetics, which make it suitable for self coloring.
