    AI Overview
    Cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) is widely used in automotive OEM coatings, particularly in clearcoats, basecoats, and plastic coatings, to improve flow, leveling, and metallic-flake orientation. It acts as a polymeric binder or additive, offering high gloss, excellent UV resistance, and fast drying times for, improved durability. 
    Key Uses in Automotive OEM: 
    • Coatings & Finishes: Used as a film-forming additive in OEM automotive paints, ensuring high transparency and preventing yellowing.
    • Metallic Flake Control: Improves orientation of metallic flakes in automotive coatings for a consistent, high-end appearance.
    • Flow and Leveling: Acts as a flow and leveling agent to minimize coating defects and enhance the appearance of sprayed coatings.
    • Plastic Coatings: Used in automotive plastic components to enhance durability. 
    Key Advantages: 
    • Weather and UV Resistance: Provides superior resistance to weathering.
    • Faster Drying: Accelerates solvent evaporation, reducing processing time.
    • Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of solvent-borne resins, including urethanes and acrylics.
    • Sustainable Sourcing: Often derived from natural renewable resources, such as in Eastman CAB-321-0.1. 
    Common grades used in the industry include Eastman CAB-381-0.5, CAB-381-2, and CAB-321-0.1.
