Eastar™ AN001 copolyester has excellent appearance and is nearly water-clear. Its most outstanding features are its chemical resistance and processing capabilities. Exposure to aromatic oils often causes crazing or actual fracture of many polymer resins, but AN001 maintains its physical properties when exposed to these oils, and its appearance is virtually unchanged. It is one of our premier materials for the cosmetics and personal care packaging market.
