ASA reinforced plastics are UV-stable engineering materials with enhanced mechanical strength and weatherability, ideal for demanding outdoor applications.
ASA, a ternary copolymer composed of acrylonitrile, styrene, and acrylic rubber, is an impact-modified resin developed by General Electric Plastics Group in the 1970s.
By replacing butadiene rubber with acrylic rubber in ABS formulations, it significantly enhances weather resistance and aging resistance, achieving over 10 times the aging strength of ABS while retaining its mechanical properties. This material combines high-temperature resistance with anti-static functionality.
Launched in China's PVC profile market under the Geloy brand in 2002, ASA production primarily utilizes twin-screw extruders for blending and granulation processes.
