PC-ABS Plastic
Last updated on Sep 04, 2026
PC-ABS Plastic is an engineering thermoplastic blend that combines the toughness and heat resistance of polycarbonate (PC) with the processability and impact resistance of ABS. This PC-ABS material is available for FDM 3D printing and is suitable for functional parts, automotive components, electronic housings, and industrial applications.
