It's a real shame that phone case sellers never show what plastic it is made of.

For example ASA plastic (Acrylonitrile styrene acrylate) is becoming more popular in 3D printing, one of its greatest strengths is resistance to sunlight so it doesn't degrade nearly as fast as other thermoplastics. It's really strong too, around the same as ABS.
