Chemical Wizards
 
Antioxidant Calculator
 

This interactive wizard is designed to assist the user in calculating the amount of an Eastman Tenox antioxidant needed to effectively retard oxidation of fats and/or oils in a food product. Hyper-links are provided to assist the user in obtaining information about antioxidant proucts and regulations.

Copromoter Recommendation
 

The Eastman Copromoter Recommendation Wizard is an interactive tool to assist in selecting the proper Eastman Copromoter for facilitating the cure of unsaturated polyester resins. It is based on the data, expertise and industry experience with these products and their applications.

e-Solvents Chart
 

The e-Solvents Chart® program provides pertinent technical and regulatory information for Eastman and non-Eastman solvents and their compatibility with specific resins. The program contains engineering properties and regulatory status for 83 solvents and resin solubility for 25 resins. By specifying selection criteria, customers can access physical properties for solvents, compare solvent and resin attributes, and obtain a resin solubility results for various resins. The results can be easily printed if so desired.

Inhibitor Recommendation
 

The Eastman Inhibitor Recommendation Wizard is an interactive tool to assist in selecting the proper Eastman inhibitor for a specific purpose. It is based on the data, expertise and industry experience with these products and their applications. Most of the information in this wizard is based on Eastman work in the area of unsaturated polyester resins, but utility to other inhibitor areas is possible.

Resin Calculation
 

The Resin Calculation Wizard is a web-based program for calculating condensation (step growth) type resins for coatings, inks and adhesives applications. The wizard receives input from a user in the form of raw material selection and certain resin parameters. Calculations are then performed to output a reactor charge for the given set of raw materials and resin parameters. In addition to raw material charge, the user can generate processing logs and graphical representations of the calculated reactor charge's polymerization. The results can easily be printed or downloaded to a spreadsheet format.

Sustane SAIB Calculator
 

This interactive wizard is designed to assist the user in formulating the amount of weighting agent (SAIB) to use in beverages that contain essential flavoring oils. Hyperlinks are provided to assist the user in obtaining information about Eastman weighting agent products and certain regulatory requirements pertaining to such products.

Solvent Reformulation Request
 

This wizard provides an online solvent reformulation request form that, when completed and submitted via e-mail, is directed to the appropriate Eastman technical service organization for processing. Potential formulation blends to meet user requirements, along with calculated solvent blend properties, will be e-mailed to the address indicated on the request form

NuTriene Tocotrienols Formulation Conceptualizer
 

The NuTriene Tocotrienols Formulation Conceptualizer Wizard is an interactive aid for product development which allows formulators and product developers to quickly see the impact that various input levels might have on a dietary supplement formula. NuTriene contains both natural-source tocotrienols and tocopherols.

t-BAA Acetoacetylation Calculator
 

Eastman t-BAA (t-butyl acetoacetate) can be used to deliver the acetoacetate functionality onto any hydroxyl bearing resin, such as polyesters, acrylics, epoxies, and cellulosics. Eastman has demonstrated that t-BAA offers the benefits of reduced resin solution viscosity, conventional crosslinking capability, alternative crosslinking capability, and improved adhesion to metal substrates in coatings applications.
The Eastman t-BAA Acetoacetylation Calculator is an interactive tool to assist in determining the proper amounts of t-BAA to use to convert the desired amount of resin hydroxyl groups and the theoretical amount of t-butanol evolved.
