Eastman listened to the performance benefits the industry wanted in a profile - toughness, clarity, ease of processing and fabrication - and developed a new copolyester resin that has these benefits. All this plus good economics and environmental responsibility. Eastman Provista™ copolymer.
Eastman Provista™ copolymer offers:
- Sparkling clarity and gloss -- it won't stress whiten
- Toughness with flexibility -- for a long functional life
- Ease of processing -- its extremely high melt strength allows higher line speeds and throughput and it can be run on standard processing equipment with minimal modification
- Ease of fabrication -- cutting, bending, drilling, and bonding
- Excellent chemical resistance -- for long-lasting good looks and performance
- Good economics -- providing cost advantages all the way to the end user
- Environmental advantages -- has no plasticizers or halogen-containing compounds, and when burned produces no toxic substances
- FDA compliance for food -- contact applications
- UV resistance, with the use of UV grades that are available.
In the past, profile extruders required specific resins for specific needs. Now, Eastman Provista™ copolymer's processing and performance characteristics make it versatile enough to be used in a wide range of profile configurations and applications.
