Rigid thermoplastics include both commodity thermoplastics
and engineering thermoplastics, such as polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), high impact polystyrene
(HIPS), polycarbonate (PC), acrynitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET),
poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), styrene acrylonitrile (SAN), poly(phenylene oxide) (PPO),
polyamide (PA), PC/ABS blend and PPO/PS blend etc..
