Features

  • Good wetting and dispersing properties even at low dosages, especially with inorganic pigments
  • High gloss
  • Strong color development
  • Prevents settling of pigments and fillers during storage
  • Performs as anti-gelling agent when basic pigments and acidic binders are used
  • In systems containing metal-based catalysts or driers, excessive Borchi® Gen ND might result in a prolonged open time and pot life due to complex formation with metal ions

Applications

  • Alkyd paints
  • Chlorinated rubber paints

Dosage

The exact dosage should be experimentally determined through a ladder study. Borchi® Gen ND should be added to the mill base before adding the pigment. Based on active dispersant on pigment:

  • Titanium dioxide: 3 – 5 %
  • Inorganic pigments: 10 – 15 %

Storage

Protect from the effects of weather and store at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product.
