Abstract: Why the Coatings Industry Needs Easy Dispersible Powder Pigment Preparations 

Many coatings companies waste countless hours milling their own dispersions. Others purchase liquid dispersions to avoid the costly grinding process. Easy Dispersible Powder Pigment Preparations eliminate the grinding process while giving higher tinting strength and transparency at equal pigment loading. It is not possible to get the same transparency by dispersing in a liquid medium.
 
The benefits of easy Dispersible Powder Pigment Preparations are numerous.  
* Zero VOC’s 
* High speed dispersible 
* 100 % solids powder preparations 
* Higher pigment loads than there wet counterparts can achieve 
* Optimal color, transparency and gloss development 
* Non-hazardous storage 
* Organic and inorganic pigments available 
Achieve cost reductions through higher tinting strength on a per pound basis versus wet preparations. Factor in the production time and cost savings and you have a winning formula.
