Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB), commonly known as butyrate, is resistant to ultraviolet rays, has a lower moisture absorption than acetate and has an extremely high impact strength.
This material is based on cellulose, being the chief constituent of cell walls of higher plants. Commercially it is made from cotton linters and wood pulp. Hence it belongs to the renewable polymers.
As an important material, cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) has many applications. It can be used in coating industry due to its UV-resistant property. Also, it is wildly used in printing oil industry because of its performance solubility. In nail care, cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) acts as a leveling agents.
Because of its high technical barriers, cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) can only be produced by Eastman. In another word, Eastman is the only manufacturer in this industry. Cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) production base is United State. Although a lot of companies are trying to produce this product in past few years, their quality cannot reach the standard. Due to Eastman’s exclusive monopoly position, sales gross margin of cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) in Eastman was high and it was 33.06% in 2015.
