The impact behavior of ABS (acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene) resins was studied by measuring the force–deflection curve generated during flexural impact tests. Each curve is characterized by a limited number of significant parameters. Their dependence on the following constitutive or ambient variables was investigated: content of butadiene rubber, degree of grafting of acrylonitrile and styrene onto polybutadiene, and temperature. The results are analyzed phenomenologically and are tentatively interpreted in the light of possible micromechanical mechanisms.
