DELTA DC® 3011

DELTA DC® 3011 by Delta Specialties is a modified polyurethane-based multi-purpose high molecular weight wetting and dispersing agent. It prevents reflocculation of pigments through steric hindrance and therefore stabilizes the color strength and hue of pigments in paints and pigment concentrates. It improves pigment wetting, gloss and leveling and reduces the time required for the grinding process. It does not influence paint binder durability due to its high molecular weight and resin-like structure. DELTA DC® 3011 is used in industrial coatings, resin containing pigment concentrates, wood and furniture coatings and coatings based on acrylic/melamine and polyester/melamine. Recommended dosage is 10% of oil absorption value for inorganic pigment, 30-50% of BET value for organic pigments and 15-25% of DBP value for carbon blacks. It has a shelf life of 5 years.
