DISPERBYK-2061

VOC-free wetting and dispersing additive for aqueous and glycol-containing organic pigment concentrates to colour aqueous and solvent-borne architectural coatings. Using DISPERBYK-2061, aqueous and glycol-containing pigment concentrates can be produced. The additive is particularly suitable for organic pigments and carbon blacks. These pigment concentrates are used as binder-free universal colourants to colour aqueous and solvent-borne coating systems, predominantly for the architectural coatings field. The pigment concentrates based on DISPERBYK-2061 display a broad compatibility in the most diverse coating systems. These include aqueous alkyd resins or alkyd resin emulsions, acrylate, vinyl acetate, siloxane resin and polyurethane dispersions (blends, eg alkyd/polyurethane), and solvent-borne long oil alkyd coatings, even those that are aromatic-free and high solids, and thermoplastic acrylic resin systems (TPA). In addition to exceptional colour strength and excellent rub-out properties, pigment concentrates with DISPERBYK-2061 display no negative influence on the coating viscosity or the drying behaviour. The additive is VOC-free and contains no alkylphenol ethoxylates.
