Evonik TEGOMER® DA 640 Dispersant
Categories: Other Engineering Material

Material Notes: Product description: TEGOMER® DA 640 is an anionic modified polyether to be used for the following main application:
  • dispersing of fillers as well as of inorganic and organic pigments in water-based systems
  • flocculation of inorganic pigments or fillers
  • emulsifier for the polymerization
Application: TEGOMER® DA 640 is a liquid dispersing additive used for surface wetting to improve dispersion properties of:
  • inorganic fillers e. g. talc, barium sulfate
  • inorganic pigments e. g. titanium dioxide, Ultramarine blue, iron oxides
  • organic pigments and carbon blacks can be dispersed as well with higher addition levels
TEGOMER® DA 640 is suitable at lower addition levels to be used as flocculent for inorganic particles only, e. g. titanium dioxide, metal hydroxides TEGOMER® DA 640 is a primary or secondary emulsifier for the polymerization of acrylates or PVAc.

Benefits: The use of TEGOMER® DA 640 offers several advantages in dependence on the function used:

  • higher filling of pastes at low addition levels in combination with excellent rheological properties and no occurrence of gelling
  • higher color strength respectively improved hiding power for titanium dioxide pastes
  • improved water repellency which goes parallel with the flocculation ability of high density materials
  • improved durability due to hydrophobic character when used for surface treatment
  • less abrasion of doctor blades using filler or titanium dioxide pastes for the application of paper coatings
  • water-based formulations which contain significant amounts of glycol or other solvents can be stabilized as well
  • solvent- and nonylphenol ethoxylate-free emulsifier technology
  • pure acrylates as well as those with high EHA content for adhesive formulation reach fine particle size distribution if it is used as emulsifier
  • water pick up of emulsions and pigments/ fillers is lowered
