From UV Curing to Automotive Refinish Paint, How Does One 6820 Handle High-End Matte Demands?

On the road to pursuing ultimate matte effects and efficient production, are engineers of UV coatings and high-end solvent-based paints often troubled by matting agent dispersion? Excessively high paste viscosity slows down production pace, while viscosity spikes or even layering after heat storage cast a shadow over product stability. Faced with numerous dispersants on the market, how to choose a truly efficient, stable, and economical product? Today, we focus on Anjeka's star product verified through multiple experiments – the Anjeka-6820 Matting Agent Dispersant. Using solid comparative data, we demonstrate how it becomes a reliable solution for matte challenges in UV and high-end solvent-based systems.

I. Hardcore Data Comparison: Viscosity Reduction, Stability, Low Gloss – A Comprehensive Win

Evaluating a dispersant, laboratory data is the most objective yardstick. Anjeka-6820 delivered a convincing report card in head-to-head comparisons with the well-known competitor BYK2009.

• Outstanding Viscosity Reduction, Boosting Production Efficiency: In the UV matting paste system, the initial viscosity of 6820 (23,017 mPa.s) was already lower than that of the competitor (29,214 mPa.s). After accelerated storage at 60°C for 72 hours, the viscosity of 6820 increased to 38,509 mPa.s, while the competitor's viscosity soared to 73,117 mPa.s, widening the gap further. This means using 6820 results in lower viscosity paste, easier pumping and stirring, and better maintained fluidity after long-term storage, directly improving production efficiency and operational experience.
• Excellent Storage Stability, Ensuring Product Quality: Stability is the lifeline of industrial products. Tests showed that 6820 not only had controlled viscosity growth after heat storage but also exhibited no layering in semi-matte UV paint, whereas the competitor showed layering under the same conditions[1,3]. This ensures consistent product performance during warehousing and transportation, avoiding batch quality issues caused by settling and layering.
• Promoting Lower Gloss, Achieving Better Matte Effects: One ultimate goal of a dispersant is to help the matting agent deliver its best light-scattering performance. Experiments indicate that whether in semi-matte or full-matte UV paint, the film gloss obtained using 6820 was lower than that using competitor BYK2009. This provides strong support for formulation engineers to achieve deeper, more uniform matte effects.

II. Beyond UV: Cross-System Application, Demonstrating Powerful Adaptability

The value of Anjeka-6820 is not limited to the UV curing field. Its excellent performance makes it highly recommended in several high-end solvent-based application scenarios as well.

• The "Professional Choice" for Automotive Refinish Paint: In the demanding field of automotive refinish paint (2K PU topcoat), 6820 is explicitly recommended for preparing high-concentration matting agent pastes. This benefits from its excellent wetting and dispersing ability, ensuring uniform and stable dispersion of matting agents in the system, meeting the high standards for appearance and performance in automotive paints.
• The "Acrylic Expert" for Solvent-Based Industrial Paints: In solvent-based industrial and anti-corrosion coatings, 6820 is positioned as a superior matting agent dispersant for acrylic systems. It can effectively address dispersion challenges of matting agents in acrylic resin systems. It is important to note that due to its higher amine value, it is generally not recommended for epoxy systems, reflecting the precise positioning of a professional product.
