Pat-Add DA 801

PAT-ADD DA 801 is a polymeric dispersing agent for use in solvent-borne and solvent-less paints, inks and colorants. PAT-ADD DA 801 is multifunctional and compatible with a wide range of apolar and polar solvent-borne paint systems. Although, PAT-ADD DA 801 is multifunctional and applicable to most pigments, it is particularly effective as dispersant for carbon black

Properties

PAT-ADD DA 801 is a polymeric dispersing agent showing strong adsorption properties onto a wide variety of pigment surfaces, contributing to best dispersion stability. PAT-ADD DA 801 is strongly adsorbed onto inorganic pigments and extenders, contributing to enhanced steric stabilization against re-flocculation.

Addition and Dosage

The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA 801 to be used is system related, but generally is between 0.4 and 1.5% PAT-ADD DA 801, calculated on the total weight of paint formulation. The product is added to the mill-base prior to the dispersion process. For use as dispersing agent in inks, a dosage between 0.7 and 3% on total weight of the ink, is typically required. For use in pigment concentrates and colorants higher levels are suggested, such as 3 to 10% PAT-ADD DA 801 on total weight of the pigment dispersion formula. The optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual requirements and conditions.
