Product Highlights

• Pigment dispersion - Offers excellent pigment dispersion, better color acceptance than other dispersants in the marketplace, good hydrophobic properties, great watermark resistant performance, and good storage stability
• Colorants - Alcosperse 747 has shown to be particularly effective as dispersant to disperse carbon black
• Easy to handle - Alcosperse 747’s low molecular weight makes it easy to incorporate into formulations
• Hydrophobically modified copolymer - Compatible in liquid formulations with high amounts of surfactants and disperses both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates

Technical Details & Test Data

Test Data

Scrub resistance

Scrub resistance was evaluated according to ASTM D 2486 using a PVC 60 formulation with a VAE latex and different Alcosperse grades. The effect of additional non-ionic wetting agent was also evaluated.

 

Color acceptance performance

Color acceptance, in a PVC 60 formulation, using the Alcosperse grades was evaluated for three different types of binders in combination with two of our Bermocoll products. The amount of colorant was 3% based on total paint weight.
