For the first time the protective coating industry can take advantage of the outstanding characteristics of cellulose acetate butyrate in a form that permits its use in formulations requiring a high non-volatile content. The high solubility o f half-second butyrate, plus its slow viscosity build-up in economical solvents such as toluene and ethyl alcohol open up entirely new fields to this unique cellulose polymer. Safely shipped and easily handled a s a dry powder, half-second butyrate produces films of low color and high clarity with excellent strength and flexibility at both normal and low temperatures. Extremely stable in the presence o f ultraviolet light, half-second butyrate films retain their initially low color, high strength and flexibility for long periods, both indoors a n d out. No other easily sprayable film former exhibits these characteristics to such a high degree. In addition half-second butyrate films possess excellent abrasion resistance and are litf-le affected b y prolonged underwater immersion or rapid temperature changes. Whether you a r e familiar with cellulose acetate butyrate or not, it will pay you to investigate half-second butyrate.
