Lansperse UV51

Dispersing agents are used extensively in the coatings industry to help disperse solid particles into a liquid medium.

​

Dispersing agents perform by the anchoring of the surfactant onto the particle substrate and then acting as a barrier to stop re-agglomeration of the particles. This concept is often referred to as steric stabilisation. The new hyperdispersant has three functions:

• A powerful amine anchoring group that latches onto the pigment substrate

• A tail section that floats within the solvent medium

• A capping group that further enhances steric hindrance between pigment particles. Lansperse UV51 has been specifically designed to offer optimum performance in monomer systems commonly used in UV formulations.
