- Properties and Applications
EDAPLAN 915 is a solvent-free dispersing and wetting agent with an active content of 100%. It is designed to disperse inorganic and organic pigments for universal use in both water and solvent based systems. It is ideal for the manufacturing of coatings as well as for the manufacturing of resin free pigment concentrates. EDAPLAN 915 is especially suited to produce water based and binder free universal pigment concentrates which are used as tinters for water based emulsion paints and coatings as well as for solvent based alkyd systems. EDAPLAN 915 stabilizes dispersed pigments and reduces mill-base viscosity. Gloss and color development are improved and reflocculation respectively Rub Out is prevented. The product is free of organic solvents and suitable for the use in emission free applications.
- Recommended Levels and Use
EDAPLAN 915 is added to the grind prior to the pigments. For optimum pigment dispersion in water based systems it is recommended to adjust pH approx. to 8 – 10. Ladder studies are recommended to determine optimum concentration level which is according to our experience about 5 – 50% calculated on pigment. Dosage recommendations for specific pigments are available in our additional technical information.
