Recently noticed on sale of ABS+ and very much its characteristics surprised, there are a strong wish to make it but where I cannot find information that is it? It is easyflowing ABS or there are doped for contraction decrease?
UPD:one of developer speaks about some additives and what additives he doesn't want to say
ABS+ is more of a marketing name than an actual type of plastic.
Usually it's things that are added that are actually not even ABS. For example, Esun ABS+ lists a downside of 'not being as affected by acetone' which means it isn't pure ABS plastic. Formfutura ABS+ supposedly is stronger, yet warps more so if I had to guess they are some proportion of ABS/PC.
You won't find 'ABS+ pellets' though. If you bought some ABS/PC pellets off Ebay for example, and you wanted to sell the filament you could conceivable call it 'ABS+ Filament' and brag about how it has improved mechanical performance.

Yes, on properties ABS/PC it is similar to ABS+, but on the website stratasys, they are different materials.And viewing their physical and thermal parameters, I mark rather big difference in characteristics.
