Introduction The future of the Cycolac* portfolio shines even brighter. Cycolac ABS resin 4 SABIC Innovative Plastics The SABIC Innovative Plastics team recognizes that the measure of quality engineering is how efficiently a design achieves its intended performance goals. Through this recognition and our commitment to customers, a new commercial focus and innovative technologies are helping to drive the latest generation of our Cycolac* resins. New products from plating grades to color aesthetics can provide unique performance to support customer success. Instrumental to this evolution is SABIC Innovative Plastics’s active role in helping customers find the best Cycolac grade for their application. In addition to our superb field technical support and product development tools, we offer a unique selection of custom color capabilities, including express, smalllot service, color matching and a broad array of visual effects. SABIC Innovative Plastics reinvents the potential of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) with its line of Cycolac performance products, featuring more innovation, more color and more service. Table 1 Cycolac ABS performance products Aesthetics Healthcare Specials Electroplating High heat Flame retardant Extrusion General purpose injection molding Cycolac resins The Cycolac family comprises one part of a much broader selection of engineering resins available from SABIC Innovative Plastics. But this versatile family of thermoplastics includes over 100 grades that all provide impressive mechanical, thermal and processing performance. The Cycolac product family also encompasses a range of aesthetic options, from clear, opaque and highly colorable resins to a variety of special effects. All grades are characterized by a rich, glossy surface finish, with admirable depth of color and good scratch resistance. Cycolac ABS resin is a terpolymer formed by blending an amorphous thermoplastic copolymer of acrylonitrile and styrene with an elastomeric component, such as polybutadiene or a butadiene polymer. By altering the ratio of these three monomers, Cycolac resins can offer an expansive assortment of performance properties tailored to meet a wide range of end-use requirements. Typical property profiles of Cycolac ABS resin include • High gloss finish • Good low temperature ductility • Excellent thermal properties • Very good processing performance • Good chemical resistance • Low shrinkage, low warping • High dimensional stability • Good electrical properties • Good paintability and platability SABIC Innovative Plastics 5 2. Cycolac* ABS performance products SABIC Innovative Plastics offers a selection of general purpose ABS grades suitable for a variety of demanding applications. But our Cycolac product portfolio is distinguished from competitive brands by a range of high-performance specialty grades. Alliage* effect This versatile alloy effect offers three dimensionality in a wide color range. Playing with the orientation of the flakes creates either a very rich, glossy, brushed aluminum look or a random burst, cracked or torn look. 6 SABIC Innovative Plastics By modifying the ABS monomers or by incorporating specific additives and fillers, SABIC Innovative Plastics' Cycolac* ABS resin family offers several enhanced or expanded performance product lines that meet target applications. These performance product lines include • Aesthetics, including custom color and Visualfx* (Vfx) compatibility • Healthcare • Electroplating • High heat • Flame retardant 2.1 Specialty grades for aesthetics SABIC Innovative Plastics offers some of the most outstanding custom color capabilities of any ABS resin supplier. Our portfolio encompasses a wide spectrum of highly colorable opaque and transparent grades. Many are compatible with our Visualfx technology, which offers designers unique aesthetics options, such as Flame, Speckle, Stone, Marble and others. The potential benefit for customers is highly differentiated end-products manufactured without the cost, emissions or added steps associated with paint processes. Plus, SABIC’s molded-in color solution delivers consistency from lot to lot.

If none of our standard aesthetic platforms apply, customers can seek a custom solution from SABIC’s Innovation Centers located in Selkirk, NY; Bergen op Zoom, The Netherlands; or Shanghai, China. SABIC Innovative Plastics 7 2. Cycolac* ABS performance products 2.2 Specialty grades for healthcare Few applications demand consistent materials performance more than medical devices. SABIC Innovative Plastics has helped designers meet this demand for surgical instruments, fluid and drug delivery components, oxygen and respiratory devices, and drainage and suction tools. In addition to the broad aesthetics options available in our portfolio, this selection of Cycolac ABS resins offers FDA and ISO 10993-compliance for healthcare applications, and many base resins are approved in Europe for food contact. Our healthcare specialty grades offer resistance to chemicals and lipids, reduced in-mold stress cracking and durable performance after repeated exposure to several sterilization methods. See figure 2.2 (page 9) for gamma radiation performance. SABIC Innovative Plastics is not only committed to providing high performance materials to customers in healthcare, we are a dedicated industry partner willing to take the long view on the extended product development cycles typical of the healthcare market. These Cycolac resin grades have been approved for medical use in the US. HMG94MD and HMG47MD are grades that offer different flow rates to meet a wide range of tooling needs.

Cycolac* ABS performance products 2.3 Electroplating and other specialty grades Although several thermoplastics can be electroplated, ABS resins continue to dominate this market. SABIC Innovative Plastics' Cycolac resins stand out from competitive brands by providing high-purity, ABS substrates with excellent surface quality, dimensional stability and temperature cycling performance. For electroplaters, these qualities translate into superb adhesion, lightweight durability and reliable performance. The versatility of Cycolac electroplating grades has driven broadening applications in automotive, household fittings, fluid engineering and electronic components. In addition, it has met the growing demand for striking aesthetics in consumer products. Cycolac MG37EPX is characterized by excellent electroplatability yielding mirror-like plated surfaces. This grade is currently specified by many automotive OEMs. Cycolac MG37EPX is also our NSF ANSI std. 61 listed grade for potable water applications including faucets and related hardware. Please consult the NSF website (www.NSF.org) for specific details. Cycolac MG37CR features improved chemical resistance. 10 SABIC Innovative Plastics Table 2.3 – Electroplating portfolio MG37EPX Automotive specified MG37EPX NSF listed MG37CR Chemically resistant 2.4 High-heat specialty grades Several high-heat Cycolac* ABS resins from SABIC Innovative Plastics are designed to provide cost-effective options for enduring color and mechanical performance – properties important for telecommunication components and electrical enclosures. But our high-heat Cycolac grades also excel in automotive interiors, where they provide superb materials solutions for dashboards, door trim, pillars and other interior elements.
