Elementis Deqian NUOSPERSE FX 365 Wetting Agent – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What types of pigment systems is NUOSPERSE FX 365 especially effective for?

A: NUOSPERSE FX 365 is particularly effective for dispersing high-surface-area inorganic pigments (e.g., titanium dioxide, iron oxides) and challenging organic pigments in aqueous systems, delivering strong wetting and reduced agglomeration during milling and storage.

Q2: Can NUOSPERSE FX 365 be used in low-VOC or zero-VOC formulations?

A: Yes — NUOSPERSE FX 365 is a non-ionic, water-based wetting agent with negligible VOC contribution, making it well-suited for low-VOC architectural coatings, industrial waterborne finishes, and other environmentally focused formulations.

Q3: How does NUOSPERSE FX 365 compare to traditional polymeric dispersants in terms of stabilization mechanism?

A: Unlike high-molecular-weight polymeric dispersants that rely primarily on steric stabilization, NUOSPERSE FX 365 functions through a balanced combination of surface energy reduction and moderate anchoring affinity, enabling rapid pigment wetting and good colloidal stability without excessive viscosity build-up.

Q4: Is NUOSPERSE FX 365 compatible with common co-additives such as defoamers and rheology modifiers?

A: Yes — NUOSPERSE FX 365 demonstrates broad compatibility with typical aqueous coating additives including silicone and mineral oil-based defoamers, associative and non-associative thickeners, and biocides, though compatibility testing under specific formulation conditions is recommended.
