- Properties
PAT-ADD DA209 is a wetting agent for waterborne systems. The product is typically used in dispersion paints in conjunction with polycarboxylic dispersion agents, such as PAT-ADD DA 101 or -103. PAT-ADD DA209 is recommended for use in universal colorants; for POS (point of sale) tinting of waterborne and solvent borne paints. PAT-ADD DA209 optimizes color development and improves paint stability.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Coating Type
- Dosage & Addition
The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA209 to be used is system related, but is generally between 0.1 and 0.5% PAT-ADD DA209, calculated on the total weight of paint formulation. The product is best added to the mill-base before pigment and extender. For use as wetting agent in universal colorants, higher dosage is required, generally 2 to 10% PAT-ADD DA209 on total weight of the colorant. The optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual requirements and conditions.
- End Use Application
