ADD-4046 is a high molecular weight wetting and dispersing additive for solvent-based coatings. It prevents reflocculation of pigments through steric hindrance and therefore stabilizes the color strength and hue of pigments in paints and pigment concentrates. ADD-4046 is preferably used in high performance solvent-based coatings but also in automotive coatings. It can be used as well in pigment concentrates.
