What material is the LEGO laptop made of?

Question

What material is the LEGO laptop piece made of? It does not feel like their normal rubber and it certainty doesn't feel like ABS.

Probably the same as other flexible parts; i believe polyethylene. — Joubarc, Apr 24 '19 at 14:09

It could be polyethylene or ABS. My guess is polyethylene because it is more flexible.

"It could be" and "my guess" aren't very strong arguments. Do you happen to have some data or source of the information to back up your answer? – Alex Sep 4 '20 at 15:50

@Alex Yes, I do. On my LDD app, it says made out of polyethylene. Also, polyethylene is more flexible than ABS. polyethylene would be used to make the "hinge" on the laptop, to make it close. – bryantp26 Sep 4 '20 at 16:20

I wasn't aware thet LDD has such information. Your answer would greatly benefit from having such information posted in form of screenshot. – Alex Sep 4 '20 at 16:34
@Alex Some pieces do, some pieces don't. For example, different wall elements could be made of ABS or a variety of different plastics. – bryantp26 Sep 4 '20 at 16:53
