Features & Benefits
- Product Highlights
- Optimizes the milling process, enabling higher pigment loading
- Provides excellent color development
- Strong prevention of pigment flocculation, floating, flooding, and pigment settling
- Excellent compatibility with alkyd resins, minimal risks of undesirable side effects
- Minimal effect on heat stability in plasticized PVC systems
- Properties
- PAT-ADD DA 701 is a polymeric dispersing agent exhibiting strong adsorption onto a wide variety of pigment surfaces, contributing to excellent dispersion stability.
- PAT-ADD DA 701 is strongly adsorbed onto inorganic pigments and extenders, contributing to enhanced steric stabilization against re-flocculation.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Coating Type
- Dosage & Addition
The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA 701 is system related, generally between 0,3 and 0,8% on the total weight of paint formulation. The product is added to the mill-base prior to pigments and dispersion process. For use as dispersing agent in plasticizer pastes, a dose between 0,7 and 3% on total weight of the paste, is typically required.The optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual formulation and conditions and best established with a ladder study.
- End Use Application
Pat-Add DA 701 shown excellent performance in variety of solvent based coatings including: Alkyd paints, Alkyd-melamine baking enamels, Acrylic enamels, Industrial primers, Vinyl coatings and Plastisol.
