Industrial Process Economics Reports About Styrene-Acrylonitrile Resin (SAN) Styrene-Scrylonitrile Resin (SAN) is one of the largest-volume styrenic copolymers. It is widely used in goods such as housewares, packaging, appliances, interior automotive lenses, industrial battery cases, and medical parts. The Intratec portfolio (www.intratec.us/our-portfolio) includes reports examining specific SAN production processes. Each report presents one-time costs associated with the construction of an
