Sustainable Solutions for Pigment Paste and Architectural Colorants
The paint and coatings industry continues to demand solutions that balance high performance with environmental responsibility. Achieving superior tint strength, color stability and pigment compatibility while meeting stringent VOC and sustainability requirements presents a persistent challenge.
Developed to address these needs, Rhodoline® 6100 is an innovative wetting and dispersing agent designed for use in pigment paste and waterborne architectural colorant formulations. With its exceptional tint strength, color acceptance and stability, Rhodoline® 6100 provides an environmentally friendly solution that aligns with industry sustainability goals while delivering reliable performance and exceptional KU retention.
KU retention refers to a measurement of viscosity stability in coatings, specifically in formulations with high pigment loads. Maintaining high KU values ensures consistent application performance, preventing sagging and maintaining the integrity of deep base formulations.
Rhodoline® 6100: Biobased with Superior Pigment Compatibility and Versatility
With 33% biobased content and near-zero VOC levels, Rhodoline® 6100 offers exceptional tint strength development, broad pigment compatibility and long-term stability. Designed for use across a wide range of binder systems, including acrylics, styrene acrylics and aliphatic alkyds, Rhodoline® 6100 prevents viscosity drops in deep base formulations and ensures superior color acceptance.
