Eastman Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB 381-0.1, Food Contact) is a cellulose ester with medium butyryl content and low viscosity. It was designed for use where low-application viscosities at relatively high solids levels are needed. It is soluble in a wide range of solvents and compatible with many other resins. When CAB-381-0.1, Food Contact is dissolved in appropriate solvents a clear, colorless solution is produced. CAB-381-0.1, Food Contact will also tolerate the use of solvent blends currently exempt from certain air pollution regulations. It is supplied as a dry, free-flowing powder.

The calculated approximate bio-content value of 41% for Eastman CAB-381-0.1, Food Contact was determined by using six bio-based carbon atoms per anhyroglucose unit divided by the total number of carbons per anhyroglucose unit. Although the value reported is not specifically measured for bio-carbon, it can be estimated based on typical partition data.This product is manufactured, stored, handled and transported by Eastman under conditions adhering to current Good Manufacturing Practices for food contact applications. This product meets requirements for use in certain food contact applications under regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (21 CFR), European Commission (Regulation 10/2011) and the Switzerland Ordinance of the FDHA on materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs (817.023.21, Annex 10). Contact your Eastman representative or authorized Eastman distributor for specific regulatory compliance documentation.For applications that do not require food contact compliance, please refer to Eastman CAB-381-0.1.
