<I>EASTMAN</I> Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB-551-0.2) Cellulose Acetate Butyrate Eastman Chemical Company Cellulosic Resins >> Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB) Coatings Automotive OEM Plastic coating Eastman Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB-551-0.2) is a cellulose ester with high butyryl content and relatively low molecular weight. It is compatible with numerous cross-linking resins and has a lower solution viscosity. In coatings, Eastman CAB-551-0.2 gives clear films, reduces surface tack and mottling, minimizes cratering, improves flow and thermal reflow, and provides intercoat adhesion and good UV stability. It is useful for durable cross-linked formulations. Its good compatibility with a wide range of curing resin systems and its solubility in a wide variety of solvents and solvent combinations make it useful as an additive in numerous coating compositions. It is used for automotive OEM, automotive plastics coatings, automotive coatings, plastic coatings, nail care and truck/bus/commercial vehicles. Cellulose ester with high butyryl content and relatively low molecular weight. Used for automotive OEM, automotive plastics coatings, automotive coatings and plastic coatings.
