ABS material (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is a type of thermoplastic that is very resistant to impact or shock.

Its applications are several, for example is a material widely used in the manufacture of interiors or components of cars such as moldings, as well as in products for domestic use such as toys, tools, housings of electrical devices etc.

One of its most important characteristics is its great tenacidad in almost all types of temperatures.

Being a very hard material has good chemical resistance, low water absorption and high resistance to abrasion, where other types of plastics would be more brittle.

This type of material is becoming very famous in the particular field and widely used due to the great growth in the sales of domestic 3D printers, the main printing raw material.next to the PLA.

Identification of ABS
Parts that are made of ABS material must be marked in accordance with ISO 11469 (DIN 58840).

Nylon or nylon is a polymer of artificial origin that belongs to the group of polyamides, based on a composition of diamine and diacid chloride.
According to the amount of carbon atoms in the chains of the amine and chloride, it is indicated behind the name, for example, the most common nylon 6.6.

Nylon as it is a very elastic and resistant material is ideal for the textile industry, mainly used foror in the manufacture of stockings in the USA.
Its application was extended until today, where not only do we find nylon in the textile application, but its applications have varied, being able to find this material in utensils, and machinery.

VAC would be the abbreviation of Volt Altern Current which would be translated Volts of alternating current. The difference between VDC is that its sinusoidal oscillation achieving a more efficient energy transmission.

The alternating current is the energy that we receive in our homes, it is generated in the power plants by means of alternators.

The intensity of this type of current varies with time, and changes direction 50 times throughsecond (50hz). The generated voltage changes in the form of sine wave so it is not constant.

In IEC connector or cable with a base (usually plastic) and a plug to connect to the socket (plug), if we put these two things we would get the named SCHUKO is the overall connector. The schuko not determine the type of connector. It would be determined by the specification of the International Electrotechnical Commision (IEC). We leave a small sample of Schukos internationally.

The Bowens standard is a standard widely used in photography, mainly used for joining softbox or umbrella to any type of flash, notable for having 3-point hitch.

IEC connector is the common name for a set of thirteen power connectors (called the connector specifications) and thirteen outlet panels (called input) specification defined by IEC 60320 (formerly IEC 320) of the International Electrotechnical Commission ( IEC). When used without other qualifiers, "IEC connector" usually refers specifically to the C13 and C14 connectors.
