Eastman Eastek 1300 Polymer Dispersion Polyester Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of Eastman Eastek 1300 in coating and ink formulations?

A: Eastek 1300 functions as a film-forming polymer dispersion that enhances adhesion, gloss, and substrate wetting—particularly on challenging substrates such as polyolefins, PET, and metallized films. It serves as a binder or performance modifier in water-based systems where low-VOC, non-ionic stability, and good shear resistance are required.


Q2: Is Eastman Eastek 1300 compatible with other water-based resins and additives?

A: Yes, Eastek 1300 demonstrates broad compatibility with common water-based acrylics, vinyl acetate copolymers, and cellulose derivatives. It is also generally compatible with non-ionic surfactants, defoamers, and rheology modifiers—though compatibility should always be confirmed via small-scale formulation testing under intended processing conditions.


Q3: How does Eastek 1300 perform under heat or during thermal drying processes?

A: Eastek 1300 exhibits good thermal stability up to typical drying temperatures used in industrial coating lines (e.g., 80–120 °C). It coalesces effectively without significant degradation and supports rapid film formation. However, extended exposure above 130 °C may affect long-term film integrity depending on formulation and substrate.


Q4: Can Eastek 1300 be used in food-contact compliant coatings?

A: Eastek 1300 is designed for industrial and packaging applications where regulatory compliance is determined by the full formulation—not individual components. Formulators must evaluate the final system against applicable food-contact regulations, as Eastek 1300 itself is not pre-certified for direct food contact.


Q5: What are the recommended storage conditions for Eastek 1300?

A: Store Eastek 1300 in its original sealed container at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C. Avoid freezing and prolonged exposure to temperatures above 35 °C. Protect from direct sunlight and ensure adequate ventilation in storage areas to maintain optimal dispersion stability and shelf life.
