DISPARLON KS-873N
DISPARLON KS-873N is a pigment dispersion stabilizer based on high molecular weight surfactants, which also acts as an anti-flooding agent.
ADVANTAGES:
Prevents pigment flocculation and separation during storage.
Minimizes color differences in applied films caused by different application methods and improves color development.
Improves leveling and film gloss.
Improves adhesion and weather resistance without adversely affecting drying and water resistance.
Can be incorporated during coloring process.
