Cellulose Acetate Butyrate ( CAB )
Supplied byGoodfellow- Last Updated on May 5, 2025
Cellulose Acetate Butyrate ( CAB ) by Goodfellow is an amorphous, transparent thermoplastic similar to cellulose acetate but more expensive and tougher with better weathering resistance as well as lower moisture absorption.
- It offers good ultra-violet resistance.
- The light control sheets can be thought of as miniature venetian blinds encapsulated between plain CAB films.
- Cellulose Acetate Butyrate ( CAB ) is suitable for spectacle frames, tool and brush handles, packaging including stiff thin-walled tubes for "display packaging", goggles and signs.
