NEW PERFORMANCE FROM NEW TECHNOLOGY

Eastman Chemical Company has developed Kelvx resin, a versatile material that provides long-term durability and temperature resistance for outdoor applications such as signs and architectural glazing products. Sheet made with Kelvx resin expands design options, while providing manufacturing flexibility, chemical and impact resistance, ease of fabrication, and superior thermoforming characteristics-all of which can yield product differentiation, cost savings, and total satisfaction for both the converter and the end-use customer.

Sheet made with Kelvx resin offers a unique combination of desirable features:

• UV protection
• Thermoforms without pre-drying
• Thermoforms at lower temperatures than acrylic or polycarbonate
• Provides higher impact strength than impact-modified acrylic
• Can be paint, printed, or vinyl decorated
• Provides excellent thermoforming detail
• Good chemical resistance
• CC1 Building Code approved
