Tallicin® 1555

Tallicin® 1555 by Pflaumer Brothers acts as dispersing- and wetting agent. It is a block co-polymer designed as a grinding vehicle for high-quality pigment dispersions for tinting and coloring of masstones. It has broad compatibility with binders commonly used in coatings and inks. It can produce stable dispersions with high pigment loading, low viscosities and controlled flocculation.

• It has been evaluated with a wide variety of commercial wetting agents and generally require a lower amount than competitive grinding resins.
• It may increase the overall performance and color strength of the dispersion.
• It provides superior efficiency in milling and particle size reduction, excellent appearance on wood and outstanding transparency in a clear base, compared with the use of equal parts of Byk 106 in a standard long-oil alkyd dispersion of transparent yellow iron oxide.
• Tallicin® 1555 offers excellent wetting properties, stabilizing properties and excellent durability.
• It is compatible with many different kinds of solvents that vary greatly in their polarity, including ethanol, methyl amyl ketone and odorless mineral spirits.
• It is aromatic-free for compliance with certain air pollution control regulations.
