- Properties
PAT-ADD DA 1801 reduces viscosity of the millbase, thus optimizing pigment wetting and dispersing. Furthermore, the product improves gloss, leveling and prevents pigment floating and flooding The anionic, slightly acidic character of PAT-ADD DA 1801 makes this additive ideal to be used for acid catalyzed systems. Furthermore, PAT-ADD DA 1801 has shown excellent performances, if used in conjunction with polymeric dispersing agents, such as PAT-ADD DA 934.
- Application
Wetting and dispersing agent, for matting agents and pigments, in air-drying paints and industrial systems. Polyester, anionic.

- Addition and Dosage
The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA 1801 to be used is system related, but generally is between 0.4 and 1.5 % PAT-ADD DA 1801, calculated on the total weight of paint formulation. The product is added to the mill-base prior to the dispersion process. The optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual requirements and conditions.
