PAT-ADD DA 302 is a multi-applicable wetting agent showing extremely strong surface activity. Main applications of the product are in the formulation of pigment dispersions as well as additive in base paints, which are tinted with universal colorants. PAT-ADD DA 302 optimizes color development. PAT-ADD DA 302 is a strong emulsifier for use in aqueous systems. It ensures rapid distribution of the colorant once added to the base thus ensuring improved color development. Furthermore, PAT-ADD DA 302 functions as stabilizer, reducing the risk of pigment flocculation, during paint production, storage or application, whereas properties like viscosity stability on storage, color development, opacity are being optimized, using PAT-ADD DA 302.
