BioPBS™ FX83AC is a bio-based polybutylene succinate adipate (PBSA) produced through the polymerization of bio-based succinic acid, 1,4-butanediol, and adipic acid. Similar to LDPE, BioPBS™ is a soft and flexible semi-crystalline polyester with outstanding properties that make it suitable for cast extrusion and extrusion coating applications, such as compostable paper cups. FX83AC has been specifically developed for use in home compostable 1-sided coated paper, designed for hot and cold beverage applications.
