DISPERBYK 2118 is a solvent-free wetting and dispersing additive that is suitable for use in various industrial applications. DISPERBYK 2118 deflocculates pigments and stabilizes them through steric hindrance. The deflocculating properties of DISPERBYK 2118 increase gloss, color strength, transparency and reduce the viscosity of formulations. DISPERBYK 2118 was developed for use in dispersing carbon blacks and organic pigments, providing benefits such as improved color development and rheological properties when used. These characteristics of DISPERBYK 2118 help formulators achieve optimized and consistent performance of their products.
