- CASE Ingredients Functions
- DispersantWetting Agent
PAT-ADD DA 817 is a wetting, dispersing and anti-sedimentation additive for a wide variety of industrial paints. The product is solvent-free and applicable for waterborne, solvent-borne and solvent-free paint, inks and pigment dispersions. PAT-ADD DA 817 is particularly effective as anti-settling agent for silica-based matting agents and as an anti-sedimentation agent in aqueous primers.

- Properties
PAT-ADD DA 817 exhibits particularly good wetting and dispersion properties with acidic pigment surfaces, such as silica, oxidized carbon black or organic pigments with acidic moieties. The product contributes to enhanced steric stabilization against re-flocculation. Although primary application is for waterborne systems, PAT-ADD DA 817 also demonstrates excellent performance in solvent-free systems, such as EP and PUR floorings. Additionally, use of PAT-ADD DA 817 in waterborne systems contributes to the creation of Newtonian flow behavior.

- Addition and Dosage
The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA 817 is system related, generally between 5.0 - 30.0% for Carbon Blacks and Organic Pigments, and 0.30-3.0% for inorganic pigments and fillers, based on total pigment/filler loading. PAT-ADD DA 817 is added to the filler, pigments or polymer during or before compounding. The optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual formulation and best established in a ladder study
