NEW REPORT: PIGMENT DISPERSANTS FOR IMPROVING COLOR DEVELOPMENT IN WATERBORNE ACRYLIC AND STYRENE/ ACRYLIC PAINTS
Comparing the effectiveness of the E-Sperse® Product Line to Standard Industry Dispersants
Of greatest importance to the consumer is ease of use of a paint. Pigment dispersion stability on the shelf and in aqueous coatings remains a priority for paint and pigment dispersion manufacturers. This study looks at improvement of the shelf life of the pigment dispersion, as well as enhancement of the compatibility of the pigment dispersion with waterborne, white-base, latex paints.Markets & Industries
