EBECRYL® 331

1 of 314 products in this brand
EBECRYL® 331 is a wetting and dispersing agent designed for use in both solvent-free and solvent-containing UV systems. Functioning as a low molecular weight additive, it actively deflocculates and stabilizes pigments through electrical charging at the pigment surface. The high wetting power of EBECRYL® 331 enables the formulation of coatings and inks with elevated gloss and improved color strength. Additionally, it effectively prevents the settling of pigments and extenders, contributing to good leveling properties in the final product. This dispersant and wetting agent belong to the chemical family of bentonite and is applied in various end uses such as radiation-curable coatings, screen printing inks, inkjet inks, flexography inks, and gravure inks. It is labeled as VOC-free and Bisphenol A-free.

Special Properties and Uses

EBECRYL 331 is a low molecular weight additive, which is able to deflocculate and stabilize pigments very actively through electrical charging at the pigment surface.                                                                                                                                                      
Due to the high wetting power of EBECRYL 330, coatings/inks with high gloss and improved color strength can be achieved. It prevents settling of pigments/extenders and offers good leveling.                                                                                                    
Material is especially recommended to be used in formulations containing inorganic pigments and/or fillers and extenders.                                                                                
Further, in fact of its acidic character EBECRYL 331 is recommended for the use in metallic formulations since it shows very good stabilization of aluminum flakes. EBECRYL 331 should be added in the grinding step.
