EASTMAN PROVISTA™ COPOLYMER MP001 is a resin specifically developed for extrusion into profiles where aesthetics such as high clarity and gloss, coupled with design flexibility, drive demand. Compared to commonly used materials, Eastman Provista™ copolymer runs on most standard processing equipment at increased speeds. An extremely high melt strength makes the resin an excellent choice when extruding profiles into complicated shapes. In addition to profile extrusion, EASTMAN PROVISTA™ copolymer is an excellent choice for extrusion of rigid tubing. This product meets the biocompatibility requirements under FDA/ISO 10993 and USP Class 6, Plastics.

EASTMAN TRITAN™ COPOLYESTER TX1500HF is a high flow grade of EASTMAN TRITAN™. TRITAN™ TX1500HF has viscosity reductions of 40-50% relative to Tritan TX1000. Other outstanding features include good toughness, hydrolytic stability, and heat and chemical resistance. TRITAN™ TX1500HF may be used in repeated use food contact articles under United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)regulations. TRITAN™ TX1500HF is certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 51 for Food and Equipment Materials.
