Wetting & Dispersing agents

LUCRAMUL® 1820 Liq.

Non-ionic dispersant and emulsifier

Especially recommended for O/W emulsions. Also applied in the production of glues with compatibilizing properties.

LUCRAMUL® AP

Phosphonic acid ester based polymeric dispersant

Dispersing agent for inorganic pigments, including titanium dioxide. The product is suitable for a broad range of applications in the coatings sector (paints, lacquers, printing inks). It has a strong viscosity reducing effect during grinding of pigments as well as in the final formulation. In combination with LUCRAMUL® DA 130 synergistic effects, like stability and compatibility improvements, can be obtained.

LUCRAMUL® NAP

Neutralized version of LUCRAMUL® AP

Dispersing agent for inorganic pigments and especially for titanium dioxide. The product is suitable for a broad range of applications in the coatings sector (paints, lacquers, printing inks) for water-based formulations and in highly polar systems (low water content uncritical). The product has a strong viscosity reducing effect during grinding of pigments as well as in the final formulation. In combination with LUCRAMUL® DA 130 synergistic effects, like stability and compatibility improvements, can be obtained.

LUCRAMUL® DA 130

Non-ionic dispersant based on natural raw materials

Excellent compatibility in many different systems. Especially recommended for universal pigment concentrates. In combination with LUCRAMUL® AP, the dispersing ability for inorganic pigments can be improved significantly. Approved for food contact applications.

LUCRAMUL® DA 140

Non-ionic dispersant and solubilizer based on natural raw materials

Especially recommended for water-based formulations.

LUCRAMUL® DA 216 P

Anionic dispersing and wetting agent, aromatic polyethylene glycol ether phosphate

Especially recommended for solvent-borne and universal systems. The product is readily soluble in common organic solvents. In 1K and 2K polyurethane systems, it improves the floating of pigments and their color strength, without having an influence on the material properties of the end product.

LUCRAMUL® DA 229 S &
LUCRAMUL® DA 229 SL

Anionic polyether sulfate

Anionic dispersant especially recommended for water-based formulations of organic pigments. The anionic character of the product gives higher stability and a better dilution ability of pigment concentrates compared to nonionic polyether based products.

80% solution of DA 229 S

LUCRAMUL® DA 345

Polymeric dispersant with pigment affine groups

Especially recommended for carbon blacks and organic pigments. It can be used in water-based, solvent-free and solvent-based systems and has good compatibility.

LUCRAMUL® DA 554

Non-ionic dispersing- and wetting agent

For organic pigments and carbon blacks. Especially recommended for water-based systems. The product has a strong stabilizing effect on dispersions.

LUCRAMUL® U FLAKES

Solid dispersant, based on natural raw materials

It can be used for the dispersion of organic pigments, carbon blacks and inorganic pigments in water-based formulations. The product is improving the slip properties of graphene concentrates and other solid pigment concentrates, which is used for the production of black and colored pencil leads. The product is added during grinding to the lead mass.

LUCRAMUL® RL

Non-ionic emulsifier and dispersant

Universally applicable and especially useful for organic pigments and carbon black. The product is water free, but easily miscible with water and therefore applicable in solvent-based and water-based systems.

LUCRAMUL® WNS

Non-ionic dispersant, aromatic polyethylene glycol ether

Especially recommended for organic pigments and carbon blacks in waterborne formulations. The product is widely compatible with different resin systems and can also be used as a post-additive to improve color acceptance of tinted systems.

LUCRAMUL® WT 100

Multifunctional additive. Outstanding wetting agent, compatibilizer and spontaneous emulsifier

The product is low-foaming and can be used in waterborne as well as solvent-borne formulations. It is also a penetration promoter for wood treatment chemicals, wood primers, coatings and emulsions. It has excellent compatibility with a wide range of solvents, co-additives, polymers and basic systems. The product has an active content of 100% and is water- and solvent-free.

LUCRAMUL® WT 200

Non-ionic wetting agent, which consists of a low viscous blend of fatty alcohol polygylcol ethers

The product reduces drastically and very fast the surface tension and is nonfoaming. This effect will be particularly used in high-speed applications like printing, dip and curtain coating, coil coating, impregnation and emulsifying.

LUCRAMUL® WT 300

Non-ionic wetting agent, which consists of a low viscous blend of fatty alcohol polygylcol ethers

The product reduces drastically and very fast the surface tension and is nonfoaming. This effect will be particularly used in high-speed applications like printing, dip and curtain coating, coil coating, impregnation and emulsifying.

LUCRAMUL® WT 400

Non-ionic wetting and retention agent with broad compatibility to common solvents

The product has rapid diffusion characteristic and the capability of reducing the surface tension rapidly.

LUCRAMUL® WT 500

Non-ionic wetting agent consisting of a blend of fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers

Low foaming wetting agent for water-based and solvent-based systems. The product has a balanced effect on dynamic and static surface tension. It is a good emulsifier for W/O emulsions.

LUCRAMUL® WT 600

Non-ionic wetting agent with good compatibility to water and organic solvent-based systems

Low foaming wetting agent with a strong impact on dynamic surface tension. The product can be applied in solvent-based and water-based systems. It can be used as co-solvent due to its broad compatibility and dissolution capability towards nonpolar to polar organic solvents.
