Developed particle example: Dispersibility improvements in solvents
Dispersibility of resin particles with incompatible solvents are improved by adding functional groups to the particles surface.
Improvement of dispersibility in solvents
Confirmed the dispersibility of SBX-8 in MEK solvent. The developed product with the functional group surface modification has improved dispersibility in solvents compared to the SBX-8, which agglomerated in MEK.
Polystyrene Particles【SBX Series】
SBX Dispersibility Improved Product
Developed particle example: Hydrophilic particles
Dispersibility of the particles are improved by adding hydrophilic groups to the particle surface and is able to disperse well without adding dispersing agents or surfactants.
Improvement of dispersibility in water
MBX-The hydrophilic particles has good compatibility to water compared to MBX-8.
One minute after the addition of the particles into water.
Observation of the liquid after agitation with a microscope (500x).
Expected Effects
-
Good dispersion on the coating surface.
-
Smooth even appearance and texture can be obtained.
