    Features

    SYCO 566® is suitable for aqueous systems, architectural coatings, pigment concentrates, slurry dispersions, printing inks, as an anionic emulsifier for polymerizations and, in some cases, for solvent-based systems.

    Polymeric dispersions stabilized with SYCO 566® generally stand out due to their excellent wetting properties, low viscosity and small particle size.

    Such surface-active properties manifest themselves in a reduced foaming tendency and a relatively high critical micelle concentration.

    Performances
    • Wet abrasion and coverage enhancement.
    • Resistance to weathering.
    • Excellent finish.
    • Great film leveling.
    • MFFT reduction.
