Anti-Settling Agent
CAS Number: 57455-37-5
Polyamide-based anti-settling agent that prevents pigment and filler sedimentation in paints, coatings, and adhesives during storage. It forms a weak gel network that keeps solids in suspension while maintaining good flow during application. Particularly effective for high-density pigments such as iron oxides and titanium dioxide.
