Dispersing Agents Market : Growth, Demand, Supply, SWOT, Consumption, ROI to 2020
Dispersing agent, also known as dispersant or plasticizer are active substances as well as non surface active polymers. Dispersing agents are generally added to a colloid to prevent clumping and to enhance separation of particles. Plasticizers consists one or more surfactants, which serve as chemical compounds that reduce surface tension which in turn prevents settling or coagulation of particles. Dispersants are used as additives in a range of products such as petrol, paints and medicines. Theses agents help in maintaining uniformity in mixtures and particles. Industrial grade of dispersing agents can be broadly classified into three types: low molecular, high molecular and polyacrylate polymer dispersants. Dispersants of weight between 1000 to 2000g /mol are known as low molecular dispersing agents. Whereas dispersants between 5000g/mol to 30,000g/mol are categorized as high molecular dispersing agents. Low weight dispersants contains polar groups which help in separation ...
