More on super-clear PET.In December December: see month. , we reported on a new generation of super-clear, ultra-pure PET bottle resins resins, n.pl complex, insoluble, sticky substances secreted by plants. Used as astringents, antimicrobials, and antiinflammatories, and are burned as incense. Can cause oral ulcers and epidermal irritations. that will be launched in this quarter by Eastman Chemical Co., Performance Polymers, Kingsport, Tenn. Eastman claims that ParaStar resin resin, any of a class of amorphous solids or semisolids. Resins are found in nature and are chiefly of vegetable origin. They are typically light yellow to dark brown in color; tasteless; odorless or faintly aromatic; translucent or transparent; brittle, fracturing has at least 25% lower acetaldehyde acetaldehyde (ăs'ĭtăl`dəhīd) or ethanal (ĕth`ənăl'), CH3CHO, colorless liquid aldehyde, sometimes simply called aldehyde. It melts at −123°C;, boils at 20. levels, making it particularly attractive for bottled water. Business strategy manager Bill Wright says the company has been reluctant to release technical data on these resins because experience to date is based on relatively short production trials in a semi-works facility. However. Wright does say that "in trials with semiworks material, we have consistently seen haze reductions of at least 50% versus conventional resins." Tel: (800) 327-8626 * www.eastman.com |
