Additional performance products
Eastman’s adhesion promoters improve paint adhesion to challenging substrates like aluminum and galvanized steel. These versatile additives can be used as primers or incorporated into coating formulations, effectively enhancing adhesion and withstanding exposure to chemicals and humidity.
Enhance general industrial coatings with Eastman Solus™ performance additives. These cellulose esters reduce the risk of delamination or peeling; improve flow, leveling and UV stability; and enhance durability and resistance to abrasion, impact and wear. They also contribute to gloss, clarity and efficiency in application, including dry time, metal flake orientation and color development.
Coalescing aids from Eastman enable good film formation and overall paint performance, even under adverse temperature and humidity conditions.
With groundbreaking weathering, chemical resistance and hardness, Tetrashield resins make industrial coatings more durable.
Plasticizers are essential in general industrial coatings, enhancing flexibility, durability, adhesion, film formation, workability and impact resistance. Their presence significantly improves the overall performance, longevity and quality of coatings across a wide range of industrial applications.
Achieve a long-lasting, beautiful appearance on industrial wood substrates with Eastek™ polymer dispersions. These dispersions provide excellent penetration and easy application, resulting in enhanced durability and a beautiful finish.
Butvar™ polyvinyl resins improve the performance of industrial coatings, wash primers and more. These resins offer optical clarity, excellent adhesion, and a balanced blend of toughness and flexibility.
Eastman’s resin intermediates are key to unlocking superior performance in general industrial coatings. They serve as the foundation for formulators, enabling them to achieve the desired balance of properties in coatings for various industrial applications. With Eastman's resin intermediates, formulators can enhance the durability, performance and overall quality of coatings.
Solvents play a crucial role in the coating of plastic articles in the general industrial sector. Coatings are applied to protect surfaces from degradation, achieve desired appearance and minimize electromagnetic interference. Given the diverse surface properties of plastics, selecting the right solvents is essential for achieving optimal paint adhesion and meeting end-use requirements. Eastman offers a wide variety of products in a series of chemical families, including ketones, esters, alcohols, glycol ethers, glycol ether esters and ether esters.
