ABS glass transition temperature is approx 105°C (similar to a melting point). This makes it great for [[3DP|3D Printing]] and injection molding or it can be bent when heated with a [[Hot Air Gun|hot air gun]]. | ABS glass transition temperature is approx 105°C (similar to a melting point).

ABS is a thermoplastic polymer (plasic) it´s the stuff Lego is made of.
Solvents
Also ABS is dissoluble in Acetone, meaning you can use Acetone to glue two ABS parts together or alter the surface.
Thermal Properties
ABS glass transition temperature is approx 105°C (similar to a melting point). This makes it great for 3D Printing and injection molding or it can be bent when heated with a hot air gun.
