Eastman™ plasticizers are used by the nail care industry to increase the flexibility of films. Consumers expect their nails to look good for five to seven days after a manicure. If films are over-plasticized, they will dry too slowly and become dull because of marring. If the plasticizer is too volatile, it will evaporate and the film will become brittle. Eastman supplies the nail care industry with a number of plasticizers - each possessing subtle differences in solubility, viscosity, and odor. Typically, individual plasticizers are chosen to achieve the desired balance of characteristics.
