Performance Materials for Harsh Environments
Edgetek™ XT High Performance Copolyesters
Stands Up to Harsh Chemicals
Edgetek™ XT high performance material blends offer outstanding strength, durability and chemical resistance, and are suitable for demanding applications where harsh operating environments are often a factor. Through a combination of various customizable polymeric resins, including Eastman Tritan™ copolyester, BPA-free Edgetek XT exhibits outstanding aesthetics, dimensional stability and resistance to stress cracking even in applications where low temperatures, high UV exposure, automotive fluids or other chemical contact, or elevated operating temperatures occur.
In addition to its exceptional performance in challenging operating environments, Edgetek XT is easy to process, due to its high flow properties, wide processing window and short cycle times, all of which can lead to improved cost-effectiveness and greater productivity.
Impact
