Main applications:
- Industrial coatings

- Recommended levels/use
Normal dosage ranges from 0.3 to 0.5 % on finished product. More can be used as needed. AGITAN 655 is typically added undiluted during pigment grinding for optimum distribution and de-aeration. For most efficient use 2/3 of AGITAN 655 is added to the pigment dispersion and 1/3 is added to the letdown. For manufacturing of emulsions it is necessary to add AGITAN 655 to the water phase.

Storage & Handling
- Storage and Packaging
AGITAN 655 is not sensitive to freezing, but for better handling it should be stored between 15 and 25 °C. As the product tends to slightly separate it should be mixed before use. The minimum shelf life in closed containers is 15 months from the date of manufacture.
