What is a solvent-based dispersant?

A dispersant is a type of surfactant that serves to uniformly disperse dispersoids (particles) such as pigments and ceramics in a solution.
Among them, solvent-based dispersants use ketones and alcohols as solvents. The dispersant is adsorbed to the surface of the dispersoids (particles), generating a steric repulsion working to improve separation of the particles.

Solutions

Looking for a biomass-based dispersant

Because it uses raw materials derived from palm oil and coconut oil, it can be used as a biomass product.

Use environmentally friendly dispersants that do not use toluene or ketones

HOMOGENOL L-28E is a toluene and ketone free, environmentally friendly dispersant.

Prevent paint and ink color separation

Superior dispersion and long-tern stability prevents color separation.

Redispersion of dried dispersoids

Because HOMOGENOL L-28E has excellent redispersibility, it can dissolve dried dispersoids to disperse particles again.

Looking for a dispersant that can be used in a variety of solvents

HOMOGENOL C-310 is a dispersant that can be used in any solvent.

Prevent static electricity

Due to its antistatic effect, it can also be used as an antistatic agent.
