There is a wide range of butyryl, acetyl, and hydroxyl levels available and consequently, a wide range of properties. The selection of a CAB should be based on the requirements of the application.
View CAB product comparison
Low butyryl level—Toughness and heat resistance.
Medium butyryl level—Solubility and compatibility with resins and plasticizers
High butyryl level—Reduced dry-to-touch time and reduced cratering. for cross-linked finishes
High hydroxyl levels—Alcohol solubility, for curing finishes
Low molecular weight (low viscosity)—Additives/reactive intermediates, or curing finishes
