Features & Benefits
- Product Highlights
CLiQSPERSE BA reduces grinding time, mill-base viscosity and provides improved color strengthand paint stability. The dispersing agent does not negatively influence the paint durability due to its film forming resinstructure.
CLiQSPERSE BA is compatible with most non-aqueous coatings systems, but particularly recommended in paints or pigment concentrates for air-dry alkyd paints, alkyd-melamine baking systems or acrylic enamels. It is also very efficient to disperse pigments into plasticizers used for PVC systems.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Level of Use
CLiQSPERSE BA is best dissolved in the solvents prior to pigment addition. The optimum loading level should be determined for each system using a loading ladder study.
CLiQSPERSE BA can be used alone or in combination with a grinding resin. A loading level between 1-5% based on total is typically used to disperse and stabilize pigments and extenders sufficiently.
