PAT-ADD DA 202

PAT-ADD DA 202 by PATCHAM FZC is a non-ionic wetting agent. It is APE-free and replaces products such as alkyl phenol ethoxylates, which are banned in certain areas based on high toxicity concerns. It is extremely low foaming. It provides strong prevention of pigment flocculation, floating, flooding, and pigment settling. Offers maintenance of efficiency even after storage-stable viscosity. PAT-ADD DA 202 is typically used in dispersion paints in conjunction with polycarboxylic dispersion agents, such as PAT-ADD DA 101 or 103. It is very suitable for use in universal colorants, as designed for tinting purposes of waterborne and solvent borne paints. optimizes color development, paint stability, when added prior to milling. The optimal amount of PAT-ADD DA 202 to be used is system related, but generally is between 0.1 and 0.5% PAT-ADD DA 202, calculated on the total weight of paint formulation. For use as wetting agent in universal colorants higher dosages are required, generally 2 to 10% on total weight of the colorant. It is a REACH compliant grade.
