Being a multi-functional dispersing agent, SER-AD FX 9085 ensures extremely stable pigment dispersions APPLICATION AND PROPERTIES SER-AD FX 9085 is adsorbed onto various pigment surfaces. The polymeric character and the presence of multifunctional adsorbing anchoring groups in the same molecule guarantees a strong interaction with the pigment surface. Contrary to traditional mono- or difunctional dispersing agents, absorbed SER-AD FX 9085 will not desorb under normal circumstances. This makes SER-AD FX 9085 extremely useful for use in pigment pastes applied in various qualities of non-queous industrial paints. Furthermore, the SER-AD FX 9085 molecule contains aliphatic chains; so the adsorbed molecule on pigment surfaces prevent flocculation by entropic repulsion. This results in: • optimal color development • reduced sedimentation • optimised gloss and opacity • highest pigment loading SER-AD FX 9085 has been designed for use in high quality industrial coatings and pigment pastes. FEATURE -> CONSEQUENCE Reactive anchoring groups on polymer backbone -> irreversible adsorption onto pigments -> provides longterm stability of tinters and paint Medium molecular mass -> lower viscosities of pigment dispersion -> higher pigment loading Film forming polymer backbone -> provides corrosion resistance and film cohesion -> adheres to metal surfaces For the production of pumpable tinters a combination of a binder and a dispersing agent is preferred. A good combination is SER-AD 9085 with a keton binder. For some pigment types it is advisable to use a second dispersing agent in conjunction with SER-AD FX 9085 e.g., SER-AD FA 196. However, this selection should be made under laboratory conditions. These tinters are applicable to the following coating systems: • alkyd-melamine • polyurethanes • acrylics • epoxy-polyamides • polyester-based paints The specific pigment affinic groups and the molecule structure enable SER-AD FX 9085 to disperse and stabilize inorganic pigments as well as organic pigments in paint or paste formulations. SER-AD FX 9085 should be added to the binder/solvent mixture before the pigment addition. The dosage depends on the pigment and binder types. It is recommended to establish the exact quantity required for optimum results by means of laboratory tests. For use in ready-mix paint formulations we recommend to use 1.0….7% SER-AD FX 9085, calculated on the total quantity of the pigment paste. For use in pigment pastes and tinters a higher dosage is recommended in order to achieve best stability and compatibility. In this case between 5 and 15% SER-AD FX 9085, calculated on total weight of paste or tinter usually gives the best results. Please refer also to the starting formulations, which will be sent upon request. Designed for use in pigment pastes and solvent-borne industrial paints.
