DISPARLON _BB-102(Anti-sagging/Anti-settling agent)

DISPARLON BB-102 is thixotropic agent based on amide wax pre-activated in Non-aromatic solvents.
DISPARLON BB-102 is very soft paste designed for easy incorporation by post-addition.

ADVANTAGES● Strong anti-sagging/ anti-settling effect● Easy incorporation (No need to make Master-batch)● Ready to use (No need for activation process)● Improve orientation of metal pigment

APPLICATIONSDISPARLON BB-102 is recommended for most of solvent based systems such as plastics, wood, automotive,heavy duty, marine, architectural and industrial coatings.
INCORPORATION
Additive levels : Preferable dosage level per total formulation is 1.0 ~ 5.0 wt.% for anti-sagging and 0.5 ~ 2.0
wt.% for anti-settling. However, dosage level may fall out of these ranges depending on yourformulation. The optimal level should be determined by your laboratory tests.
Method: High speed dissolver is recommended.
Dispersing
temperature: Amide component may form particles if it is dissolved into a formulation and later
precipitated during dispersing process. Standard dispersing temperature is between
the room temperature and 50°C to prevent particle generation. Please be careful of thedispersing temperature because particles may occur at the upper side of the standard
temperature range mentioned above if a formulation contains large amount of polar
solvent.

TYPICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance: Light yellow paste

Non-volatile matter: 10% by weight

Solvent: Butyl acetate/ n-Butyl alcohol

Particles may occur in the paste during storage at a low temperature less than 15°C because of thecrystallization of its ingredients. In such case, please warm the vessel in a heating chamber at the temperature
between 35°C and 40°C for 24 to 48 hours just before using it.
Store temperature: below 40°C. Storing above 40°C may cause degradation of quality and performance.
(Thickening behavior may be changed. / Dispersibility may be deteriorated.)
CAUTION
Amide wax may cause low surface tension. Please make sure to check recoatability especially in alkyd melamineor oil modified alkyd baking systems.
