Eastar™ AN004 Copolyester contains a mold release. It has excellent appearance and is nearly water-clear. Its most outstanding features are its chemical resistance and processing capabilities. Exposure to aromatic oils often causes crazing or actual fracture of many polymer resins, but AN004 maintains its physical properties when exposed to these oils, and its appearance is virtually unchanged. Easy to process, it flows readily and fills intricate molds. Its processability coupled with its outstanding chemical resistance makes it well suited for thick-wall applications.

This product has been CRADLE TO CRADLE CERTIFIED(cm)
The CRADLE TO CRADLE CERTIFIED(cm) Mark is a registered certification mark used under license through McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC). MBDC is a global sustainability consulting and product certification firm. The CRADLE TO CRADLE® framework moves beyond the traditional goal of reducing the negative impacts of commerce (‘eco-efficiency'), to a new paradigm of increasing its positive impacts (‘eco-effectiveness'). At its core, Cradle to Cradle design perceives the safe and productive processes of nature's ‘biological metabolism' as a model for developing a ‘technical metabolism' flow of industrial materials. Product components can be designed for continuous recovery and reutilization as biological and technical nutrients within these metabolisms.
