What is a dispersant?
A dispersant is a chemical that exerts a dispersing function. For example, it is a chemical that breaks down solid particles one by one and disperses them evenly in the dispersion medium, and prevents the dispersed particles from re-agglomerating, maintaining a stable dispersion state. Dispersants come in a variety of fields and materials, and our company deals in "pigment dispersants" that can be used to improve performance by mixing specific materials into plastic materials (resins). Normally, when adding pigments and fillers (hereinafter referred to as fillers) to pellets of polyolefin or other resins and kneading them, there are sometimes cases where the mixing and dispersion of the plastic and pigment/filler is not smooth. Even in such cases, by using our pigment dispersants, it becomes possible to mix them quickly, easily, and efficiently. In particular, our dispersants are pigment dispersants whose main component is a special nonionic surfactant, and they exert an efficient dispersion effect without changing the resin material.
