Synergistic dispersing agent for universal colorants
Dispersogen LEC
Edition Date :
August 16, 2023
Dispersogen LEC is an amphoteric, surfactant based dispersing agent and synergist for water-based and solvent-based pigment preparations based on inorganic pigments.
Dispersogen LEC is recommended for use in point-of-sales colorants and concentrates for in-plant tinting in combination with a nonionic dispersing agent, e.g. Dispersogen MT 200.
The general dosage recommendation is 4-6% on organic or inorganic pigments.
