Product Description

Eastman Solus™ 2300 performance additive is a dry, free-flowing powder that is convenient to handle. It is soluble in a wide range of solvents and compatible in most high solids coatings systems. When Solus™ 2300 is dissolved in appropriate solvents a clear, colorless solution is produced.

Eastman Solus™ 2300 performance additive is based on cellulose, one of the most abundant natural renewable resources. The calculated approximate bio-content value of 43% for Solus™ 2300 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.
