Eastman™ Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB-381-0.5)

Eastman™ cellulose esters (CAB, CAP, and CA) are versatile problem solvers made from a green, sustainable and renewable resource that can be used as binders, additives, film formers or modifiers in paints, coatings, primers, lacquers and enamels for automotive, wood, plastic, paper, consumer electronics and leather applications, in graphic arts, inks and overprint varnishes. These high Tg materials provide improvements in key properties such as rheology control, dry time, appearance, metal flake orientation, sag, flow and leveling, block resistance and print resistance.

CAB-381-0.5 is a cellulose ester with medium butyryl content and low viscosity. It was designed for use where low application viscosities at relatively high solids levels is needed. It is supplied as a dry, free-flowing powder.
