Eastman Tritan™ copolyester is an exciting and significant breakthrough that builds on the quality and versatility of its predecessors to deliver greater heat resistance and the potential for easier processability of small appliance components. Tritan™ creates a new standard for small appliance applications with greater clarity, toughness and chemical resistance.

Eastman Tritan™ offers drop-in replacement for many polycarbonate (PC) injection molds, with minor or no adjustment.

Eastman Tritan™ delivers big opportunities for small appliances by offering these clear advantages:

  • BPA free
  • Hydrolytic stability and chemical resistance
  • Dishwasher durability
  • Temperature-resistant — resists degradation and stress cracking in hot, wet dishwasher environments
  • Toughness — impact resistant comparable to PC
  • Lower density — increases number of parts per pound of polymer
  • Improved injection molding rates and durability of the molded articles

Contact us for more information about applying the exciting potential of Tritan™ to your products for all your small appliance needs in the future.
