High Molecular Weight Dispersant

High molecular weight dispersing agents offer a pronounced stabilization effect. This is due to a high number of anchoring groups along the polymer backbone which bind to numerous sites on the pigment surface. These high molecular weight dispersing agents can be linear or branched molecules with molecular weights between 5,000 and 20,000 g/mol.

Key Benefits
  • Outstanding color strength
  • Improved gloss
  • Anti-flooding behavior
  • Excellent flocculation stability
  • Solvent-free

Recommended Concentrations

Calculation method to estimate the minimum required amount of active ingredients on pigment (DOP):

Inorganic pigments

20 - 30 % on oil absorption value

Organic pigments (green, blue, violet)

15 - 30 % on BET value

Organic pigments (yellow, orange, red)

25 - 45 % on BET value

Carbon blacks (LCF)

15 - 20 % on DBP value

Carbon blacks (HCC)

50 - 80 % on DBP value

Applications

Dispex Ultra® PX 4290 is a dispersing agent of organic and inorganic pigments in aqueous coating systems, printing inks and adhesives. Due to the excellent stabilizing characteristics high levels of gloss, outstanding color strength and excellent viscosity reduction can be achieved. This allows also higher pigment loadings while excellent flow characteristics are maintained.
