Pigment Dispersion
Dispersions of 8% TiO2 and 8% FD&C Red 28 AL Lake were made directly into Silsurf I108. The dispersions were uniform and stable. This was tried with several other organosilicone products without success.
8% Carbon Black was dispersed in Silsurf I108 and the mixture was then dispersed in water in a ratio of 1:2 and examined under an optical microscope.
Carbon black alone shows clumps, while the dispersion in Silsurf L108 and the aqueous dispersion are much more evenly dispersed.
