ADD-N40 can be used as supplied. ADD-N40 has been successfully used to produce a wide range of aqueous slurries and dispersions. Suitable substrates include calcium carbonate, kaolin/china clay, dolomite, ferrite, magnesium hydroxide, mica, satin white, talc, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide etc. ADD-N40 can be used to increase the solids loading of the required inorganic dispersion or reduce the working viscosity at a given solids content.
It is recommended to add the pigment to water containing the dispersing agent with stirring as opposed to
addition of the dispersing agent to a pigment slurry. In general, the pH of the final preparation should be in the region of 8.5 to obtain optimum dispersing efficiency.
Usage 0.5 – 2.0% ADD-N40 into the formulation (based on total pigment weight).
Storage, safety & handling
Although ADD-N40 is freeze stable, it is recommended to store the product at temperatures above 5ºC to enable easy handling of the product. Avoid frost and freezing. Do not store in steel, copper or aluminum containers. Thermal decomposition above 200ºC releases carbon dioxide. ADD-N40 should be handled in accordance with good industrial practice. Detailed information can be found in the Safety Data Sheet.

The neutralizing alkali used in conjunction with the acrylic polymer can significantly impact the properties of the final coating. ADD-A40 releases ammonia during the drying process and therefore has little impact on water and alkaline resistance of the dry film. Use of ADD-A40 should be limited to pH 5 -10.5 and temperatures lower than 70°C due to potential loss of volatile ammonia.

ADD-7730 is developed on paint chemistry and transforms the ultra violet component of the daylight (300 – 400 nm) into harmless heat, thus eliminating the destructive action of UV-light and also provides significantly extended life time to coatings by minimizing paint defects such as cracking and loss of gloss. ADD-7730 contains a reactive group that cross-links with the alkyd-resins structure during the oxidative drying.
