Cellulose Acetate Butyrate CAB Plastic

This low-viscosity CAB is widely used in high-performance coatings and inks, offering excellent flow, leveling, and gloss control. Its low hydroxyl content makes it ideal for fast-drying formulations, improving solvent release and film formation in automotive, industrial, and packaging applications.

For applications requiring enhanced adhesion and durability, this moderate-viscosity CAB balances flexibility and toughness. It's a top choice for wood coatings, plastic coatings, and general-purpose finishes, providing a clear, protective barrier that resists yellowing and environmental wear.

With its higher molecular weight, this CAB grade improves film hardness, scratch resistance, and weatherability. Frequently used in industrial and automotive coatings, it enhances durability and gloss retention, making surfaces more resilient to abrasion and environmental exposure.

A high-viscosity CAB designed for durability-focused applications, CAB-381-20 provides UV resistance, hardness, and long-term film integrity. Used in marine coatings, automotive topcoats, and premium wood finishes, it helps create a tough, protective layer that withstands extreme conditions.

This high-butyryl CAB delivers superior flexibility and impact resistance, making it ideal for textile coatings, leather finishes, and plastic coatings. Its enhanced compatibility with resins and plasticizers ensures a smooth, elastic film that resists cracking and peeling over time.

Formulated for high-gloss and exceptional flow, CAB-531-1 is a go-to option for automotive clearcoats, industrial lacquers, and high-end wood finishes. It offers improved pigment dispersion, UV stability, and scratch resistance, ensuring that surfaces maintain their clarity and shine longer.

This grade is a regionally modified version of CAB-531-1, tailored to meet specific formulation requirements while maintaining the same high-performance characteristics. It is widely used in coatings for plastics, automotive refinish systems, and specialty finishes.

A low-viscosity CAB with enhanced hydroxyl content, making it more reactive in thermoset and high-solids formulations. It is a preferred resin additive for UV-curable coatings, high-durability finishes, and industrial inks, ensuring faster drying and increased resistance to environmental wear.

This is a regionally optimized variant of CAB-553-0.4, designed to comply with specific industry regulations. It retains the same fast-drying, high-clarity properties, making it a versatile choice for solvent-based coatings and printing inks.

With the lowest molecular weight in the CAB family, this grade is perfect for high-solids coatings that require excellent clarity, adhesion, and flow. It is commonly used in ink formulations, reactive coatings, and solvent-free systems, where maintaining low viscosity is critical.

A medium-viscosity CAB designed for coatings that need enhanced flexibility and toughness. Its balanced butyryl and hydroxyl content ensures smooth film formation, making it an excellent choice for graphic arts coatings, overprint varnishes, and specialty adhesives.

A localized version of CAB-551-0.2, offering the same high-performance benefits with slight modifications to meet regional compliance standards. Used in inks, lacquers, and high-end finishes, it improves flow control, film durability, and scratch resistance.

This high-butyryl, low-viscosity CAB provides exceptional flexibility, impact resistance, and solvent compatibility. It’s used in high-gloss coatings, nail polish formulations, and specialty plastic coatings, ensuring a durable, smooth finish with superior adhesion properties.
