Differential thermal analyses (DTA) were conducted on spinel‐filled and hydrated spinel‐filled acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) terpolymer. Spinel and hydrated spinel displayed antioxidizing properties in the ABS composite. The enthalpies of oxidation for ABS, spinel‐filled ABS, and hydrated spinel‐filled ABS were 130, 15, and 0 J/g, respectively. Mechanical property measurements show that hydrated spinel reinforcing properties equal that of precipitated calcium carbonate treated with zinc stearate. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
