Water Based Pigment Dispersions

Wb high performance water based dispersions.

Water based pigment dispersions.

Traditional styrenated acrylic dispersions are available for use in a variety of anionic coating and ink applications packaging decoration and labeling. Pigments are particles and are generally more opaque than dyes although some of our dispersions can be manufactured to be transparent. We offer water based pigment dispersions which can be optimized to your manufacturing process to obtain the best compatibility and value. As an example avecia solsperse 43000 polymeric dispersant would be recommended for dispersing various pigments in resin free dispersions for general industrial and decorative water based paints.

Water based pigment dispersions. A key benefit of using this kind of product is the wide resin compatibility it offers in various resin systems including polyester acrylic. Penn color has several product lines suitable for various water based ink and coating applications. Our water based pigment dispersions have been used in non woven textiles soaps architectural and construction coatings excelsior and many other specialty applications.

Our line of conventional water based liquid pigment dispersions. Pigment dispersions for water based ink evolving markets are leading to new and challenging customer demands and ink manufacturers need to be able to react quickly. Generally solvent based systems more readily wet a pigment due to the lower surface tension of solvents when compared to the higher surface tension of water table 2. Deagglomeration in this phase of the dispersion process pigment agglomerates are separated into smaller aggregates and primary particles.

Water based pigment dispersions are used instead of dyes in applications which require opacity light stability and or thermal stability. Pigment dispersion is a costly time consuming process considering the pigments must be properly wetted dispersed and stabilized in order to achieve the proper color and gloss.
