DISPERBYK®-185

DISPERBYK®-185 is a high molecular weight wetting and dispersing additive for solvent-borne and solvent-free pigment concentrates. It is composed of solutions of high molecular weight block copolymers with pigment affinic groups. This product is solvent-free and is especially suitable for the production of alkylphenol ethoxylate- and solvent-free universal tinters which are used in aqueous, solvent-borne and solvent-free architectural coatings. DISPERBYK®-185 is also well suited for the prevention of flooding/floating in PVC-plastisols for coil coating applications.
