Dispersing Agents for the Paper Industry  

BTC Europes product portfolio covers a wide range of dispersing agents. In general dispersing agents provide the property of keeping solids dispersed and they provide the flowability of the solid-liquid mixture. They keep the fluid behaviour (viscosity) on a low level and long-lasting after they are embedded in the formulation. Depending on industries they are also described as deflocculants.

Dispersing agents provide a very good performance in paper and pulp applications. They serve as pitch and deposit control agent, disperse water insoluble sticky materials, prevent agglomeration of sticky materials, are used as disperants for minerals which improve brightness and opacity, enable a visible whiter appearance of the pulp.
