Dispersing Agent

A solid material dispersed in a liquid requires an additive to make the dispersion process easier and more stable - this is the role of the dispersing agent, or dispersant.

Dispersants deflocculate solids and thus significantly reduce the viscosity of a dispersion or paste. As a result of this effect, solid loading - the amount of dispersible powdered material - can be increased accordingly. The dispersion phase is possibly the most time - and energy-consuming stage of the production process. This is due to the different surface tensions of the liquids (e.g., resin, solvents) and the solids (e.g., fillers, additives). A dispersing additive is necessary to produce stable formulations and ensure storage stability (no viscosity instability, no separation).

TRIO CHEMICALS - TRIODISP dispersants are low-viscosity functional components that improve the quality and processability of waterborne coatings. They have been designed to accommodate a broad range of pigments and fillers in coatings, as well as the conditions imposed by coating type and are particularly well-suited to the dispersion of inorganic pigments.
