HALF-SECOND BUTYRATE Eastman announces the production of a l o w viscosity cellulose acetate butyrate. 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 of 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.
If you are concerned with the development
Safely shipped and easily handled as a dry powder, ha If-second butyrate produces fiims of low color and high clarity with excellent strength and flexibility at both normal and low temperatures. Ex tremely stable in the presence of ultraviolet light, half-second butyrate films retain their initially low color, high strength and flexibility for long periods, both indoors and out. No other easily sprayabie film former exhibits these characteristics to such a high degree.

In addition half-second butyrate films possess excellent abrasion resistance and are little affected by prolonged underwater immer sion or rapid temperature changes.
