Wetting Agent

The wetting agents also referred as surfactants are very vital to minimize the surface tension arising between two types of liquid. They also find their utility in the reduction of tension existing between a liquid and a solid material. The wetting agents also double up as emulsifiers and water infiltration agents depending upon the requirement.

Dispersants

These agents are primarily used to offer stability in emulsions and offer their capability to produce dispersion solutions specifically for paint and in the distribution of pigment. Our guidelines for the agent provide the exact technology needed for stability and uniformity in the coatings.

MARK I 4310

Antisettling Agent for Offset Inks

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK I 4310 is an easy flowing liquid & can be readily mixed or added at any stage of manufacturing ink. However, it is always ideal to add half the quantity at grinding stage & the remaining half at later stage to achieve maximum efficiency.
The phenomenon of settling mostly depends upon the nature of pigments, weight of pigments and also the extenders which are incorporated in the formulations. It is always advantageous to determine the optimum level of MARK I 4310 for particular formulation by taking trials.
• DOSAGE FOR Offset inks: 0.3 to 1%.
• DOSAGE FOR Other solvent based inks: 0.1 to 0.5%.

Defoamers

Defoamer, also invariably referred as an anti-foaming agent is actually a chemical additive and is widely preferred for its inherent characteristic to drastically minimize and hamper foam formation in liquids produced out of complex industrial process. Our methodology of use for different types of systems needs to be adhered properly for effective results.

MARK I 4410

Mineral oil based Defoamer for Water based Ink Systems

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK I 4410 is recommended for Ink formulations where air-entrainment causes operational difficulties or impair the quality of Ink performance. 0.25 to 0.5% of defoamer on the weight of the inks is usually sufficient to suppress air-entrapment.


MARK I 4420

Mineral oil based Defoamer for Water based Ink Systems

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK I 4420 is recommended for Ink formulations where air-entrainment causes operational difficulties or impair the quality of Ink performance. 0.25 to 0.5% of defoamer on the weight of the inks is usually sufficient to suppress air-entrapment.


MARK I 4430

Poly-siloxane based Defoamer for Water based Ink Systems

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK I 4430 is recommended for Ink formulations where air-entrainment causes operational difficulties or impair the quality of Ink performance. 0.25 to 0.5% of defoamer on the weight of the inks is usually sufficient to suppress air-entrapment.


MARK I 4440

High performance Mineral oil based Defoamer for Water based Ink Systems

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK I 4440 is recommended for Ink formulations where air-entrainment causes operational difficulties or impair the quality of Ink performance. 0.25 to 0.5% of defoamer on the weight of the inks is usually sufficient to suppress air-entrapment.


MARK I 4450

Anti-Foam agent for Water Based Systems. MARK I 4450 is recommended for formulations where air-entrainment cause operational difficulties or impairs the quality of the product. It has also very rapid foam knock-down properties.
From 0.25 to 0.5% of defoamer on the weight of the coating solids is usually sufficient to suppress air-entrainment. The optimum amount for individual formulations can readily be determined by trial.
For adhesives, 1 to 2% of MARK DC 1450 based on the weight of the latex solids is more than sufficient.
As the product is very effective antifoam agent, a very small quantity like 200 gms to 500 gms can effectively defoam 100 Ltrs of paint. It is advisable to split the addition of defoamer by adding half the normal quantity to the pigment mix prior to grinding to suppress the formation of foam & the balance to the let down portion of the paint.


MARK IC 2460

Next generation Modified polysiloxane based Antifoam agent for solvent borne Industrial Coating. Foaming caused by mechanical forces while production, mixing and application of solvent based systems can be prevented by use of MARK IC 2460.

Recommendation & Method of use:
MARK IC 2460 is recommended for formulations where air-entrainment cause operational difficulties or impairs the quality of the product.


MARK IC 2470

Organo Modified polysiloxane based Antifoam agent for solvent borne
and solvent free Industrial Coating. Foaming caused by mechanical forces while production, mixing and application of solvent based systems can be prevented by use of MARK IC 2470. Air inclusions and pinholes in solvent-borne, solvent free and radiation-curing coatings, which is particularly significant in high viscosity or high
solids formulations and essential for airless/airmix applications can be prevented by use of MARK IC 2470
