Product Description
Modern packaging formulations are expected to deliver stunning colors, high print throughput, flawless finishes, and durable graphics, all while protecting the safety of end-users. Eastman Solus™ 1275 performance additive, food contact, is designed to deliver on the high performance expectations required of ink and metal packaging formulations. This cellulose-based additive enables formulations that deliver toughness, good resistance to marring, superior flexibility, and desirable dimensional stability. When Solus™ 1275, food contact, is dissolved in appropriate solvents a clear, colorless solution is produced.
Eastman Solus™ 1275, food contact, is based on cellulose, one of Earth's most abundant natural renewable resources, with an approximate calculated bio-content value of nearly 40%.
This product is manufactured, stored, handled and transported by Eastman under conditions adhering to current Good Manufacturing Practices for food contact applications. This product meets requirements for use in certain food contact applications under regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (21 CFR), European Commission (Regulation 10/2011) and the Swiss Ordinance on Materials & Articles in Contact with Food (SR 817.023.21). Contact your Eastman representative or authorized Eastman distributor for specific regulatory compliance documentation.
For applications that do not require food contact compliance, please refer to Eastman Solus™ 1275 and discuss requirements with your Eastman technical representative.
