DISPERBYK-190 is the aqueous wetting and dispersing additive with the widest range of applications. Due to its excellent wetting and dispersing quality, it ensures high gloss levels and transparency in coatings and printing inks in combination with low viscosity, which enables better flow behavior and increased pigmentation. DISPERBYK-190 is especially suitable for the production of resin-free pigment concentrates. It also achieves excellent results in the wetting and dispersion of fillers and other solids, so that DISPERBYK-190 is widely used outside the coatings industry, too. This convincing product profile has made it the global industry standard for water-based systems.
DISPERBYK-190 BF is the biocide-free version of DISPERBYK-190.

DISPERBYK-199 (BF)
DISPERBYK-199 is the first VOC-free wetting and dispersing additive based on electrosteric stabilization that perfectly combines high quality standards with the need for economic efficiency. It is therefore a good alternative to the polyelectrolyte-based dispersing additives often used in aqueous systems or the high-molecular wetting and dispersing additives. DISPERBYK-199 is equally suitable for organic and inorganic pigments and increases the hiding power of TiO2 in particular, thus enabling lower pigmentation. DISPERBYK-199 is insensitive to ions and therefore compatible with all water qualities. It is particularly recommended for water-based paints (PVC 16-35) and highly filled pigment concentrates.

DISPERBYK-2010
DISPERBYK-2010 is especially suitable for resin-free grinding and provides excellent dispersion and stabilization of organic and inorganic pigments. This leads to an intensive color strength development, good transparency and hiding power, and an increase in gloss. DISPERBYK-2010 significantly reduces the grind viscosity and improves the flow and processing behavior of systems. As DISPERBYK-2010 has a relatively hydrophobic structure, it has virtually no negative influence on the water resistance of the dry coating. DISPERBYK-2010 is also efficient with other solids, is very economical, and is used in various applications.

DISPERBYK-2014
DISPERBYK-2014 is a wetting and dispersing additive for solvent-borne, solvent-free, and aqueous coatings and UV systems as well as for water-based printing inks and inkjet inks, which has only a medium product viscosity despite its active substance of 100%. Its focus is on maximum transparency, gloss, and perfect color development of organic pigments and carbon blacks. This product profile is rounded off by a significant reduction in viscosity in the system, even with high pigmentation.

DISPERBYK-2015 (BF)
The VOC-free wetting and dispersing additive DISPERBYK-2015 is a specialist for aqueous pigment concentrates of the highest quality: the particles are very finely dispersed and sterically stabilized. These pigment concentrates can be used in many different binder systems. With DISPERBYK-2015, high gloss levels and extraordinary color strength can be achieved with optimum viscosity and good flow properties. Due to its extraordinary effectiveness and compatibility, DISPERBYK-2015 is also widely used in other areas of application in which perfect dispersion and stabilization play a central role.
DISPERBYK-2015 BF is the biocide-free version DISPERBYK-2015.

DISPERBYK-2080
Wetting and dispersing additives for aqueous systems always have a certain hydrophilic character, that continues to have an effect even in cured coatings, which can impair their water, corrosion, and stain resistance. DISPERBYK-2080 is an additive that offers very good viscosity reduction and deflocculation, especially of inorganic pigments, titanium dioxide, and fillers, but without impairing the above-mentioned properties. This is why DISPERBYK-2080 occupies a special position in the market for aqueous wetting and dispersing additives.
