Cellulose Acetate Butyrate, commonly known as CAB, is a thermoplastic material derived from cellulose. It is a clear and amorphous polymer that combines the benefits of cellulose acetate and cellulose butyrate. CAB offers a unique combination of clarity, impact resistance, and chemical resistance, making it a popular choice in various industries.

CAB finds applications in a wide range of industries due to its desirable properties. It is commonly used in the production of clear and tinted sheets, films, and coatings for applications such as eyewear, automotive interior trim, signage, and decorative laminates. CAB is also employed in the manufacturing of consumer goods, including handles, knobs, and other household items, due to its durability, ease of processing, and aesthetic appeal.

CAB offers several advantages over other thermoplastics. It provides excellent optical clarity, rivaling that of glass, making it an ideal choice for applications that require transparency. CAB also exhibits good impact resistance and toughness, ensuring durability and resistance to mechanical stresses. Additionally, it has good chemical resistance, allowing it to withstand exposure to various chemicals and environmental conditions.

CAB demonstrates good dimensional stability, low water absorption, and low shrinkage, providing consistent performance over time. It can be easily processed through extrusion, injection molding, and other manufacturing techniques, allowing for efficient production and customization.

CAB extrusion allows for customization based on specific requirements. Different grades of CAB can be extruded to achieve desired properties such as increased impact resistance or improved weatherability. Extruded CAB profiles can be produced in different lengths, thicknesses, and shapes to meet specific design needs. Additionally, CAB can be customized in terms of color, enabling a wide range of design possibilities.
