Eastman Chemical Company has introduced a new line of low volatile pure monomer resins including: Kristalex 5140LV, Kristalex 3115LV, Kristalex 3100LV and Plastolyn 290LV.

The new low volatile pure monomer resin brands will continue to offer the great performance, excellent color, and stability of Eastman’s well-known pure monomer product line while offering lower levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), the company reported. Eastman pure monomer resins have been used for many years to balance cohesion, melt viscosity, and mechanical properties of various polymers. While the new low volatile pure monomer resins have the same performance as traditional Eastman pure monomer resins, they also offer the assurance of a certified, lower volatility pure monomer resin with lower residual monomer.
