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).

hen we talk about IP code (International Protection) we talk about an international standard (IEC 60529) which classifies the protection against external factors, solid or liquid, that has a component or electronic device; LED strips, controllers, meters, security cameras, etc.

This alpha-numerically standard has been designed to sort different levels of protection. Nomenclature starts with IP followed by two numeric values.

- Example IP68:

The first value ranges from 0 to 6 and indicates the protection against solid agents. In this case, strong protection against dust.

The second value is between 0 and 8 and indicates the protection against liquid agents. In this case the complete and prolonged immersion during the time specified by the manufacturer.

We could say that the larger the number is greater IP protection has a device.

In below table, we can see different IP protections levels available.

IPXX	First digit (IPxx)	Second digit (IPxx)
0	Unprotected.	Unprotected.
1	Protection against objects of> 50 mm diameter.	Protection against vertically dripping water.
2	Protection against objects of> 12.5 mm diameter.	Protection against inclined drip water up to 15°.
3	Protection against objects of> 2 mm in diameter.	Protection against water projected from any direction, up to 60°.
4	Protection against objects of> 1 mm in diameter.	Protection against splashing water any direction.
5	Ingress of dust is not entirely revented, but it must not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the satisfactory operation of the equipment .	Protection against water jets.
6	Dust tight.	Protection against strong jets of water.
7		Protection against complete immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.
8		Protection against complete and prolonged immersion.

IP65 Although it seems very complicated nomenclature IP standards is only one division in two digits, where each digit indicates that it is being served to meet these regulations. For the first digit would be: 0 No protection 1 element to be used for testing (sphere 50 mm in diameter) should not get to go completely. 2 element to be used for the test (area of ??12.5 mm diameter) should not get to go completely. 3 element to be used for testing (sphere 2.5 mm in diameter) must not come at all. 4 element to be used for the test (sphere of 1 mm in diameter) must not come at all. 5 ingress of dust can not be avoided, but it must not enter an amount that interferes with the proper functioning of equipment. 6 polvo should not come under any circumstances in the case of the second digit: Level Protection Against Expected Results Test Method 0 The water enters the equipment quickly. 1 The equipment is placed in their usual work. Should not enter the water when it is dropped from 200 mm height from the team for 10 minutes (at a rate of 3-5 mm³ per minute) 2, the equipment is put into lugar normal work. You should not enter the water when the leaves fall, for 10 minutes (at a rate of 3-5 mm³ per minute). This test should be performed four times at a rate of one for every 15 ° rotation both vertically and horizontally, starting each time the normal position. 3 The equipment is placed in their usual work. You should not enter the water spray at an angle up to 60 ° right and leftvertically to an average of 10 liters per minute and a pressure of 80-100kN/m for a time not less than 5 minutes. 4 The equipment is placed in their usual work. You should not enter the water thrown from any angle to an average of 10 liters per minute and a pressure of 80-100kN/m for a time not less than 5 minutes. 5 The equipment is placed in their usual work. Should not enter waterthrown jet (from any angle) by means of a nozzle 6.3 mm in diameter, at an average of 12.5 liters per minute and a pressure of 30 kN/m for a time not less than 3 minutes and a no closer than 3 meters. 6 The equipment is placed in their usual work. You should not enter water squirted (from any angle) through a nozzle diameter of 12.5 mm, an average of 100 liters per minute and a pressure of 100 kN/m² for at least three minutes at a distance of not less than 3 meters. 7 The object must endure without any filtration complete immersion in 1 meter for 30 minutes. 8 electrical/electronic equipment must withstand (without filtration) complete and continuous immersion depth and during the time specified by the manufacturer of the product with the agreement ofclient, but provided they are more severe than those specified for the value 7. For IP65 should meet the following standard conditions. Would hold cirscuntancias be dusty and prevent to enter under any cirscuntacia, and bear no powerful jets of water.

LSHF Cable (Low Smoke Halogen Free Cable) or also called LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) is a type of international classification that is used to cover the wires in the cable industry both steel and other types. LSHZ has a thermoplastic coating that propagate little heat sources. Another carasterística do not emit toxic gases or fumes when exposed to flame. You have to take into account that surfacertas facilities may be required by the competent authority using these cables.
