Description

Efka PU 4063 is a polymeric wetting and dispersing agent for the deflocculation of inorganic and organic pigments in high-quality solvent-based pigment pastes. It reduces dispersing time, improves gloss, prevents flooding and floating, and delivers higher color strength. Efka PU 4063 reduces dispersing time and millbase viscosity, facilitating the formulation of highly concentrated pigment pastes; after the pigment paste is blended into paint, it prevents flooding and floating of pigments and promotes excellent gloss and high color intensity. It is readily compatible with a wide range of binder types, so pigment pastes based on Efka PU 4063 can be used in 2-component polyurethane paints, 2-component epoxy paints, unsaturated polyester, stoving paints, and air-drying paints. For inorganic pigments and carbon blacks in general solvent-based paints, see also Efka PU 4010, another BASF Efka polymeric dispersant from the same Additives Team.

Properties

Application

Efka® PU 4063 is a dispersing additive for organic and inorganic pigments in high-quality solvent-based pigment pastes.

Efka® PU 4063 reduces the dispersing time and the mill base viscosity and thus facilitates the formulation of highly concentrated pigment pastes. After the pigment paste has been blended into paint, Efka® PU 4063 prevents flooding and floating of pigments and promotes excellent gloss and high color intensity.

Efka® PU 4063 is readily compatible with a wide range of binder types. Pigment pastes based on Efka® PU 4063 can therefore be used in 2-component polyurethane paints, 2 - component epoxy paints, unsaturated polyester, stoving paints and air-drying paints.
