Coatings:
ADD-5010 is a conventional dispersant for solvent-based coatings to improve pigment wetting, reduce the
dispersion time and increase gloss and flow. It is particularly suitable for stabilizing titanium dioxide and
extenders. ADD-5010 strongly reduces mill-base viscosity allowing high pigment loading.
It is suitable for the following applications:
General industrial coatings
Transportation coatings (OEM and car refinish)
Acid-catalyzed systems (e.g. coil coatings)
PU sanding sealers (e.g. wood coatings)
ADD-5010 should be added prior to the dispersion/grinding process.
5.0-10.0% (delivery form) on inorganic pigments
1.0-5.0% (delivery form) on TiO2 and extenders
Composite:
ADD-5010 helps to wet and disperse extenders (CaCO3 and Al(OH)3) with unsaturated polyester resins or
combinations with polystyrene, polyvinylacetate and styrene-butadiene copolymers. This results in:
Easier incorporation of the extenders leading to reduced dispersing/grinding times
Lower and stable viscosity of the pastes and therefore improved flow, higher filler loading
and better flame retardance. It is designed for filled SMC (sheet molding compounds) and BMC (bulk
molding compounds), and also suitable for filled gelcoats.
ADD-5010 should be added to the resin system while stirring prior to the addition of the extenders.
2.0-4.0% (delivery form) on extenders

Storage & Handling
- STORAGE, SAFETY & HANDLING
ADD-5010 should be stored in a cool dry place. When kept in an original unopened container, it will keep up to 5
years from the date of manufacture. ADD-5010 should be handled in accordance with good industrial practice.
