Eastman Tritan™ Renew LX151HF-30 Copolyester
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyester, TP

Material Notes: Eastman Tritan™ Renew LX151HF-30 is a high flow grade of an amorphous copolyester with excellent appearance and clarity. Tritan Renew LX151HF-30 has viscosity reductions of 40-50% relative to standard grades of Eastman Tritan. Tritan Renew LX151HF-30 contains a mold release derived from vegetable based sources. Its most outstanding features are excellent toughness, hydrolytic stability, and heat and chemical resistance. Tritan Renew LX151HF-30 was developed for the cosmetic, fragrance, and personal care markets. Tritan Renew LX151HF-30can easily be converted into articles for application in consumer and personal care markets by injection molding, extrusion blow molding, and injection blow molding. Eastman Renew polymers have been certified by International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC), a global, independent agency for tracking sustainable content in a variety of industries. Renew polymers are produced with ISCC certified circular content by mass balance allocation.
