Eastman Cristal™ EN059 Copolyester
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyester, TP
Material Notes:	Eastman Cristal™ EN059 is a copolyester designed to be fully compatible with the PET recycling stream. It enables recyclable cosmetics packaging that is tough and exhibits good chemical resistance. It is suitable for molding thin-walled transparent containers or parts (up to 4mm thickness), while maintaining clarity and color. Eastman Cristal™ EN059 meets the definition of resin identification code #1 (RIC1) as defined by the California Assembly Bill (#906) and by ASTM D7611. Other end-product attributes, including but not limited to size, color, auxiliary components, and availability of collection, may also impact recyclability. EN059 has been successful as an ABS alternative in thin parts. Applications Bottles-color cosmetics pkg Bottles-fragrance pkg Bottles-skin care pkg Closures-fragrance pkg Color cosmetics packaging Deodorant containers Fragrance packaging Jars-skin care pkg Personal care & cosmetics packaging Personal care bottles Personal care packaging Skin care packaging Specialty containers-color cosmetics pk Key Attributes Excellent Processing for thin parts Good chemical resistance Recyclable with the PET stream Suitable replacement for ABS Transparency Information provided by Eastman.
