Eastman™ Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB) are mixed cellulose esters containing both acetate and butyrate functional groups. They are commonly used as binders and additives in coatings applications for a variety of substrates, including plastics, textiles, metal, and wood. Eastman™ CABs offer a wide range of properties based on molecular weight as well as their butyryl, acetyl and hydroxy content. Most grades are soluble in several low-cost solvents and are compatible with a range of resins and pigments.

Cellulose Esters enhance appearance, performance and protection capabilities of wood coatings and finishes. They are used as co-resin or additive to provide benefits to 2K PU/acrylics, acid-cured and UV-cured formulations.
Eastman Solus™ performance additives are the newest cellulose esters designed for high-solids solvent-borne systems. Solus™ is specifically engineered to meet lower VOC target while improving performance in clear, pigmented and metallic automotive coatings.
Eastman CAB enhances efficiencies and reduces waste through fewer rejects and reduced need for re-coating while substantially improving finished outcomes.
Cellulose ester can be formulated into inks as the main film former, co-resin, or additive to improve appearance, performance, and productivity.
Eastman Cellulose Esters allow for the more efficient production of high quality coil coatings with fewer surface defects, consistent gloss, and increased flop.
