Low Foam Wetting Agents,Silicone Based Defoamers,Pigment Dispersions For Coatings

Wetting agents are divided into two kinds of substrate wetting additives and dispersing agents, substrate wetting agent is used to improve the coating surface tension and permeability, so that it can better wetting of the substrate, thereby improving paint adhesion, particularly in terms of improving the adhesion of the primer to the substrate applied very widely used, is generally ionic or a nonionic fluorocarbon or fluorocarbon some substance or other modified to improve substrate wetting substances, products of domestic manufacturers in this regard has already done a good job.

The paint in addition to both this function, there is a most important function is to assist the dispersion of fillers and pigments dispersion and assisting anti-settling effect, can help in the paint pigments and other powder dispersion and wetting and dispersing agent help paint anti-settling agent subsequent anti-settling, dilute the anti-settlement after coating, the wetting and dispersing agent, anti-settling role played by far more important than the anti-settling agent. So wetting and dispersing agents are very important in coatings, represents the product can be used in solvent-based coatings Germany BYK of BYK-103, Ciba EFKA-4010 and so on.

Dispersant/Dispersing agents are used as additives to provide a uniform mixture of particles and to prevent clumping and setting. It is produced using different types of chemicals such as lignosulfonates, polycarboxylate, etc., depending on its usage in different industries. The production of dispersing agents is the growing trend in the market due to increasing applications in construction, paints & coatings, pulp & paper, detergents, oil & gas, agricultural, pharmaceuticals, and other end-user industries. Among these, construction industry is dominating the dispersing agent market due to rising developments in the infrastructure sector.

In the end, let’s look forward to the market of dispersing agents. The dispersing agent consumption is estimated to be 3,960 KT in 2013 and will grow at a CAGR of 6.7% annually till 2018. The increasing demand for dispersing agents in Asia-Pacific, especially in China, and the growth in end-user industries such as construction and paints & coatings are key factors that drive the global dispersing agent market.
