Product Description：
Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB) is a tough, versatile thermoplastic derived from cellulose, featuring both acetate and butyrate
groups, making it weather-resistant, soluble in many solvents, and ideal for durable coatings (like auto paints), tool handles,
and plastics, offering good toughness and gloss with a natural, organic feel.
