DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ: Antistatic ABS Compound for Injection-Molded Housings and Industrial Components
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ is an antistatic ABS compound developed by DEYU for injection-molded parts that need static control without switching to a fully conductive black material.
Product Summary
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ is an antistatic ABS compound developed by DEYU for injection-molded parts that need static control without switching to a fully conductive black material.
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ permanent antistatic ABS and antistatic plastics platform. Use these pages when the molded part needs controlled surface resistance, dust reduction, ABS impact strength and stable injection molding appearance.
Its resistance direction of 10⁷–10⁹ makes it suitable for applications where ordinary ABS attracts dust, accumulates static charge, or creates ESD handling concerns. Compared with conductive ABS, this material is positioned closer to antistatic and static-dissipative applications, where balanced appearance, impact strength, flowability, and processing stability are still important.
Typical value of this grade:
it reduces static accumulation compared with ordinary ABS; keeps the molding and appearance advantages of ABS; supports injection-molded housings and functional parts; offers a practical balance between electrical control and mechanical properties; can be considered for dust-sensitive equipment covers, electronic housings, trays, and industrial components.

2. Technical Route: Why Antistatic ABS Is Different From Conductive ABS
Antistatic ABS and conductive ABS are not the same material direction.
Conductive ABS usually targets lower resistance and often uses higher conductive filler loading. It is suitable for stronger charge transfer, powder handling, or conductive industrial components, but it may bring limitations in color, impact strength, surface gloss, and flowability.
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ is more suitable when the product needs controlled static dissipation rather than strong conductivity.
Suitable Selection Logic
Choose DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ when:
ordinary ABS attracts dust; the housing needs reduced static accumulation; the product is used near electronic devices; clean surface appearance is important; black conductive appearance is not preferred; injection molding flowability must remain practical; mechanical strength cannot be sacrificed too much.
If the application requires very low resistance, grounding function, or powder-contact conductive performance, DEYU can evaluate conductive ABS or other conductive compound routes separately.
3. Application Scenarios
3.1 Electronic Equipment Housings
Electronic equipment housings often need good appearance, dimensional stability, impact resistance, and reduced ESD risk.
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ is suitable for:
instrument housings; electronic device covers; control panels; equipment shells; small electrical component covers.
Selection focus:
surface resistance on final molded parts; impact strength; color and surface appearance; dimensional stability; assembly reliability.
3.2 Dust-Sensitive Industrial Covers
Ordinary ABS can attract dust around air outlets, fans, display windows, and static-sensitive areas. Antistatic ABS helps reduce dust adhesion and cleaning frequency.
Suitable parts include:
industrial equipment covers; air outlet covers; display-side housings; automation equipment panels; protective covers.
For outdoor or semi-outdoor covers, DEYU can further evaluate UV-resistant antistatic ABS.
3.3 Trays, Fixtures, and Handling Parts
For trays or handling parts used around electronic components, static control and impact performance are both important.
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ can be considered for:
light-duty ESD trays; assembly fixtures; handling parts; packaging support components; dust-reducing molded parts.
The final suitability should be confirmed by resistance testing on the real molded part, because wall thickness, gate position, and molding conditions may affect measured values.
4. Processing Reference
Typical processing direction:
drying temperature: 85℃; drying time: 4–5 hours; injection temperature: 195–210℃; mold temperature: around 70℃.
Because the melt flow index direction is 22 g/10 min, the material has practical injection molding flowability for many housing and cover parts. For parts with long flow length, thin walls, or strict surface requirements, mold temperature, injection speed, and holding pressure should be adjusted through trials.
5. Customer Case 1: Industrial Control Housing With Dust Adhesion
Original Situation
A customer used ordinary ABS for an industrial control housing. The housing had good appearance, but dust accumulated quickly near the ventilation area after several days of operation.
Original Data
| Item | Ordinary ABS |
|---|---|
| Surface resistance | Insulating direction |
| Dust adhesion after 7 days | High |
| Cleaning frequency | Once every 2 days |
| Surface appearance | Good |
| Notched impact strength | Acceptable |
| ESD concern | Medium |
DEYU Material Direction
DEYU recommended DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ.
Technical focus:
antistatic resistance range; good molded surface; impact retention; stable injection molding; dust reduction without switching to conductive black material.
Result After Trial
| Item | Ordinary ABS | DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ |
|---|---|---|
| Surface resistance direction | High insulating direction | 10⁷–10⁹ direction |
| Dust adhesion | High | Significantly reduced |
| Cleaning frequency | Once every 2 days | Once every 5–7 days |
| Surface appearance | Good | Good |
| Housing impact performance | Acceptable | Acceptable |
| Molding process | Stable | Stable after parameter adjustment |
Case Conclusion
The customer did not need a strongly conductive ABS. Antistatic ABS was more suitable because the real problem was dust adhesion and static accumulation, not grounding conductivity.
6. Customer Case 2: Antistatic ABS Tray for Electronic Handling
Original Situation
A customer used ordinary ABS trays for small electronic components. The tray was strong enough, but static accumulation caused dust attraction and occasional handling warnings.
Original Data
| Item | Ordinary ABS Tray |

| Surface quality | Good | Good |
Case Conclusion
For electronic handling trays, the best solution is not always the lowest resistance. DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ provided a controlled antistatic route while keeping ABS processability and tray strength.
7. Purchasing Guide
Before selecting DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ, buyers should confirm:
target surface resistance range; whether the part needs antistatic, static-dissipative, or conductive performance; final part thickness; injection molding conditions; impact requirement; surface appearance requirement; color requirement; whether UV resistance or flame retardancy is also required; testing method and acceptance standard.
A professional inquiry should not only say “antistatic ABS.” It should include the application, resistance target, part drawing, color, processing method, and mechanical requirements.

Conclusion
DGK-ABS KJD678R-BZ is an antistatic ABS compound from DEYU for injection-molded housings, covers, trays, fixtures, and industrial components. Its resistance direction of 10⁷–10⁹ makes it suitable for applications between ordinary insulating ABS and strongly conductive ABS.
The material is worth evaluating when ordinary ABS causes dust adhesion, static accumulation, or ESD handling concerns, but the product still needs ABS surface quality, impact strength, and processing stability. Final validation should be done on actual molded parts, including resistance, impact, surface appearance, shrinkage, and assembly performance.
