How to find the equivalent to DISPERBYK-2200 or DISPERBYK-2205?
DISPERBYK-2200 and DISPERBYK-2205 dispersants are suitable for solvent-borne and solvent-free liquid coatings, printing inks and pigments. These two dispersants essentially address a single problem, but due to factors such as cost-effectiveness, performance improvement, environmental considerations or supply chain diversification, many manufacturers are looking for better products than DISPERBYK-2200 and DISPERBYK-2205. This guide will introduce you to a better dispersant than these two – BZ-2400 dispersant.
What is DISPERBYK-2200 And DISPERBYK-2205？
DISPERBYK-2200 is known for its excellent stabilization abilities, especially with phthalocyanine pigments and carbon blacks in solvent-based and solvent-free coatings. When used with phthalocyanine pigments, it reduces thixotropy, creates smoother flow, enhances color strength and transparency, boosts gloss while reducing haze. Additionally, it lowers viscosity, allowing for higher pigment content in organic pigment concentrates. With carbon blacks, it intensifies jetness significantly.
Understanding the Origin of BZ-2400 Dispersant
In the world chemical additives industry, the leading companies are located in countries such as Germany, Japan, China, South Korea and the United States. However, the most rapid development is in China. At the end of last century, EFKA, BYK, TEGO and other leading brands entered the Chinese market, which made China’s coatings and ink additives industry develop rapidly in more than 30 years.
In order to better participate in China’s huge market competition, Chinese additives companies continue to introduce new high-performance products, performance and price more and more advantageous, and gradually in the world has a growing influence.
One of the most influential companies in the Chinese market – Camen Chemical is one of the representatives. They not only have a R&D team led by more than 20 PhDs, but also co-operate with many famous universities in research and development. Throughout the Chinese market, there are nearly 1,000 coating and ink manufacturers cooperating with them, the reason is that their products not only have good performance and stability, but also have a very advantageous price, and more importantly, they have been constantly innovating.
For example, this article is looking for equivalent DISPERBYK-2400 and DISPERBYK-2205 products can be replaced by Camen Chemical’s BZ-2400 dispersant (click here to view), which has better performance and more features than the above two BYK dispersants.
Functions of BZ-2400 Dispersant
BZ-2400 is composed of molecules containing pro-pigment groups and performs particularly well in solvent-borne coatings, solvent-free coatings, automotive coatings, ink coatings, wood coatings, and industrial coatings. It can quickly grind all kinds of colour pastes as well as reduce the viscosity, has good wetting, stability. It can improve the transparency of transparent pigments and the covering power of solid colour pigments.
Advantages of BZ-2400 Dispersant
BZ-2400 dispersant has good wetting and dispersing properties and certain rheological properties, especially when grinding carbon black and other colour pastes.
Application Tests
BZ-2400 dispersant has been rigorously tested and used in nearly 1,000 companies in the Chinese market to ensure its application in solvent-borne, solvent-free and light-curing coatings. Suitable for a wide range of formulations, this compatibility minimises possible disruptions in the transition process.
