DISPERBYK 2080 is a wetting and dispersing additive that stabilizes inorganic pigments and fillers in aqueous systems. It uses electrosteric stabilization to deflocculate pigments without negatively impacting other properties. DISPERBYK 2080 minimizes water absorption in coatings, improving corrosion and stain resistance. As a result, coatings have increased gloss and flow better due to reduced viscosity. DISPERBYK 2080 is suitable for use in anti-corrosive primers and direct-to-metal coatings where it enhances wetting and dry adhesion. It can also be used in wood and furniture coatings to stabilize pigments and fillers for a smooth finish with long-lasting protection and durability.
