Eastman Neostar FN006 Elastomer
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE; Polyester TPE; Polyester, TP

Material Notes: Neostar FN006 elastomer is the second in Eastman’s series of tough, clear, durable copolyester ethers. Developed for use in the profile and automotive markets, it can also be used in packaging and tubing applications. Its chemical resistance, flexibility, and toughness make it an ideal choice for applications where strength, durability, and puncture resistance in harsh environments is required. Neostar FN006 can be used in injection molding or cast film, blown film, or tubing extrusion applications. This copolyester has a full range of flexibility and memory without the addition of plasticizers. Considered environmentally preferred due to its non-halogenated material composition, it can be incinerated cleanly without the emission of toxic gases. The target inherent viscosity of this product is 1.6.
