The new product enables coatings and ink formulators to achieve outstanding pigment dispersion and stability, while enabling ever-stringent sustainability initiatives for 100% solids systems and a wide range of solvent-based systems.
A more sustainable industry requires the discovery and utilization of new raw materials and technologies, presenting an opportunity to develop products with unique properties not previously explored in the additives sector.
Learn how the amount of actual dispersant added on pigment solids will have an effect on tinting power, stability, compatibility of formulations, and other properties.
In order to achieve high-quality coatings, a pigment dispersion must be liquid, have an optimal particle size and be stable over long periods of time. During the grinding process, dispersing agents distribute and stabilize the smaller pigment particles, restricting re-agglomeration. These same dispersing agents help prevent flocculation of the pigment particles during storage and when mixed in a white-base, latex paint.
