Features Of Eastman CA-394-60LF Cellulose Acetate

  1. Low-fuming (LF) grade formulated to minimize smoke and volatile emissions during thermal processing.

  2. High acetate substitution (≈59–61 wt% acetyl content) for enhanced solvent solubility and film clarity.

  3. Optimized melt flow for consistent extrusion and thermoforming performance in high-speed production lines.

  4. Excellent UV stability and inherent resistance to yellowing under ambient and accelerated aging conditions.

  5. Compliant with FDA 21 CFR §177.1000 for indirect food contact applications when used as a functional barrier.

Typical Applications Of Eastman CA-394-60LF Cellulose Acetate

  1. Transparent packaging films for premium confectionery, pharmaceutical blister lidding, and cosmetic overwraps.

  2. Thermoformed trays and clamshells for fresh produce, bakery goods, and ready-to-eat meals.

  3. Acetate-based filtration media substrates requiring dimensional stability and low extractables.

  4. Base resin for specialty coatings and lacquers in optical and decorative surface finishes.
