FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions — SAN Resin
What is the difference between SAN and ABS?
SAN is a transparent copolymer of styrene and acrylonitrile. ABS adds butadiene (rubber) to that mixture, which makes it opaque but significantly increases its impact resistance.
Does SAN resin yellow over time?
SAN resin has a natural slight yellow tint compared to water-clear polystyrene. Higher acrylonitrile content improves chemical resistance but can slightly increase this yellowing.
Where do you supply SAN granules?
Granil PolyTrade supplies SAN resin across India, including Delhi NCR, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana, and Rajasthan, with logistics managed from Gurgaon.
