Filter pressure value**, Bar/g. pigment Einar® pigment dispersion in colour masterbatches How it works As a liquid dispersing aid, Einar® 101 will coat the pigment and enable a uniform and homogeneous dispersion of individual pigment particles in the polymer. The uniqueness of Einar® 101 is explained by its chemical composition as a non-ionic surface active component, free from contaminants and low-molecular-weight oils that can adversely affect colour critical applications. The result is higher colour yield and lower filter pressure, compared to waxes currently on the market. Tested to perfection Tests of the performance of Einar® 101 have shown the superior performance of this dispersing aid when measured against industry-standard waxes: 110 110 100 100 90 90 Ref. colour yield, % Optimise costs and production processes Einar® 101 offers a unique opportunity for cost savings. Its effectiveness in dispersing pigments will result in lower pigment loadings needed to obtain the desired colour strength. The measurable result is higher colour yield and reduced filter pressure. With the efficiency of Einar® 101, it is possible to increase the pigment concentrations in a masterbatch, providing additional cost benefits. Einar® 101 also adds a lubricating effect, resulting in better process control and higher extruder throughput.
