    Eastman, a global supplier of specialty plastics, announced a partnership with NB Coatings to use Trēva™ engineered bioplastics to create a new Class A surface coating solution for interiors


    .


    NB Coatings is an industry leader in providing coatings for plastic surface coating to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with assembly plants located at home and abroad


    .


    Trēva is a very viable and ideal choice for companies that want to develop sustainable, cost-effective products


    .


    When sprayed with NB Coatings coating systems, Trēva can meet the stringent Class A surface coating requirements imposed by OEMs


    .


    "Trēva is a sustainable, bio-based alternative to polycarbonate, ABS (acrylonitrile-butanediol) in automotive interior applications," said Chris Scara\z\zo, head of Eastman Automotive Marketing.
    ethylene-styrene copolymer) and PC-ABS (a blend of polycarbonate and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) at no additional cost


    .


    Sourced from sustainably managed forests, Trēva is 42% to 46% biobased and certified under the USDA BioPreferred® program


    .


    "Carbon Regeneration Technology" is a chemical recycling technology that recovers various waste plastics in landfills, converts them into simple molecular components, and reuses them in the production of various Eastman products, including Trēva , will not cause adverse effects on product performance


    .


    In automotive applications, the cellulose-based material Trēva exhibits the advantages of high performance and low environmental impact


    .


            In addition, Trēva's low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions are critical for interior trim
    .
    The excellent properties such as easy handling and good fluidity also ensure that the interior parts are not easily deformed and the thin-walled design is convenient to use, thereby reducing the amount of materials and weight

    .

            Jesse Fritcher, vice president of technology at NB Coatings, said: “As a supplier of environmentally friendly coatings, NB Coatings is excited to work with Eastman to find new breakthroughs
    in paintability.
    Judging from the results of Trēva’s testing, the performance of our coatings products Adhesion is comparable to, and in some cases superior to, general grades of PC-ABS, providing automotive design engineers with a new sustainable alternative
