Additive für Klebstoffe und Dichtungsmassen

ANTI-TERRA is one of BYKs trade names for wetting and dispersing additives. Wetting and dispersing additives stabilize pigments (inorganic, organic and also effect pigments) and fillers. Wetting agents are surface-active substances and improve the wetting of solids. Dispersing agents prevent particles flocculating by various mechanisms (electrostatic effects, steric effects). Wetting and dispersing additives unite both mechanisms of action in one product, i.e. they are both wetting and stabilizing. ANTI-TERRA are mainly used to support anti-separation and anti-settling properties of formulations.

BYK is BYK's long-standing number-one brand for a wide range of additives. This brand combines a broad portfolio of defoamers and air release agents, surface additives, adhesion promoter and coupling agents as well as some wetting and dispersing additives to provide the best properties for coatings, printing inks, plastic materials and various other applications. BYK additives can be used in a broad range of applications and systems.

DISPERBYK is BYKs main brand for wetting and dispersing additives. DISPERBYK wetting and dispersing additives provide a fine and homogeneous distribution of solid particles in liquid media and ensure the long-term stability of such systems. The additives stabilize pigments (inorganic, organic and also effect pigments) and fillers. The liquid phase can comprise water and the entire range of organic solvents of varying polarity. Wetting agents are surface-active substances and improve the wetting of solids. Dispersing agents prevent particles flocculating by various mechanisms (electrostatic effects, steric effects). Wetting and dispersing additives unite both mechanisms of action in one product, i.e. they are both wetting and stabilizing. DISPERBYK wetting and dispersing additives can be used in a wide range of different applications.
