Pigment Dispersing Agent Uses
We specialize in high-quality pigment dispersing agents in paint, coatings, inks, and color pastes applications.
Our dispersing agent for water-based paints can improve the wetting of titanium dioxide and other pigments. The dispersants break up agglomerates and keep particles evenly separated. So it prevents floating, streaking, and color inconsistencies in your final coating. Well-dispersed pigments also enhance gloss, hiding power, and water resistance, forming smooth and uniform films for consistent performances during application and over time.
In industrial systems, pigments often face higher shear and more complex resin systems. Celotech Ruico dispersing agents for pigments anchor onto pigment surfaces and provide steric stabilization. It keeps particles evenly distributed even under stress, also maintain viscosity stability during storage and application. Thus, the better dispersion leads to improved film smoothness and color strength for your coating finish.
The appearance and clarity are critical for wood coatings. Our pigment dispersants are able to improve pigment wetting and prevent uneven color development. It helps you achieve smooth and uniform finishes, as well as contribute to better gloss and depth. Our paint dispersants can stabilize your coating systems, reducing defects such as settling, floating color, clumping, or bubbling, both during storage and actual application.
We not only supply dispersing agents in paint, but also water-based dispersants for printing inks. Fine dispersion is significant for ink performance. Excellent dispersing agents reduce particle size and keep pigments uniformly distributed. With our additive, you can get color strength and print sharpness well improved. They also lower grinding viscosity, making processing easier. The stable dispersion can help your inks avoid settling and ensure consistent printing results.
In color pastes, high pigment loading requires strong stabilization. Celotech Ruico pigment dispersants are good at adsorbing onto pigments and create a protective layer. It prevents flocculation even at very high concentrations, allowing you to formulate resin-free or universal concentrates. You can benefit from vibrant color, high pigment strength, and excellent storage stability.
Packaging and Storage
Packaging is available in 30kg/drum and 200kg/drum sizes, and also supports customized packaging options for customers.
Please store the pigment dispersants in a dark place, keep them unopened, and control the temperature between 5°C and 35 °C. Our pigment dispersing agents have a shelf life of 12 months from the date of production.

Customer Reviews
We have been using RT5027 in our industrial waterborne coatings for several months now. The dispersion remains stable, even after extended storage. We have also observed an improvement in gloss compared with our previous solution, along with a slight reduction in grinding time. Overall, it is a dependable product for our formulations.
Markus WeberSenior Coatings FormulatorCelotech Ruico dispersant is ok for our pigment concentrates with inorganic pigments. The viscosity control is good and we did not see settling during storage. The price is acceptable for our market.
Rajesh KumarPurchasing ManagerWe tested Celotech Ruico dispersant sample in our water-based ink system and saw better wetting of fillers like calcium carbonate. Dispersion is easier and the system stays stable during production. It’s simple to use and works well in daily operations.
