DISPERSOGEN PCE
Clariant
Dispersogen PCE is a dispersing agent for inorganic pigments like titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate, talcum, China clay, iron oxide pigments, gypsum, cement and many others. Dispersogen PCE is a polymeric dispersing agent with carboxylic acid groups on the principle polymer chain and polyethylene glycol ether side chains. The anionic charges on the principle chain of Dispersogen PCE absorb onto inorganic pigments and provide steric stabilization due to the polyethylene glycol ether side chains. This mechanism is sometimes superior to the electrostatic stabilization of polyacrylic acid salts or copolymers of acrylic acid and e.g. maleic acid resulting in higher dispersion stability.
