| High molecular weight carboxylic acid salts |
 |
EFKA-5054 helps to prevent interfacial tension between the hydrophilic pigments/extenders and the binder, forming a lattice structure with the pigments at the same time.
This means:
-reduced dispersion time
-stabilization of the pigment dispersion
-decreased pigment sedimentation
-reduced tendency to sag during application on vertical surfaces
-prevention of flooding
* Application:
EFKA-5054 is ideal for dispersing organophilic Bentonites, because it reduces dispersion time, improves the storage properties of the final paste and gives a thixotropic, easily processed paste-product.
EFKA-5054 is especially suitable for non-polar to medium-polar binder systems, ie. air-dried alkyd resins, chlorinated polymers, alkyd/amino resin combinations and epoxies.
EFKA-5054 can cause discoloration in nitrocellulose varnishes. |
