DISPERBYK-103 is a wetting and dispersing additive used for solvent-borne matting agent pastes. As a copolymer solution with filler affinic groups, DISPERBYK-103 provides fluidity, stability and ease of dosing for highly concentrated matting agent pastes. These pastes can then be used to automatically adjust the gloss level of coatings. DISPERBYK-103 allows for lower gloss reduction compared to dry incorporation of matting agents. It is especially suitable where consistent gloss control and a smooth appearance are required. The additive ensures matting agent pastes incorporating DISPERBYK-103 remain homogeneous upon storage and application, delivering reliable and precise gloss management.
