Ferro Colorants Prevent Float, Flocculation

Ferro's new "Series 28" line of stable colorants for epoxy floor coatings consists of 40 standard, single-pigment dispersions and custom blends in a highly stable, 100 percent-solid, epoxy resin vehicle. The colorants significantly reduce the float and flocculation of additives that cause colors to vary depending on when in the cure cycle they are applied.

These stabilized dispersions are totally reactive with all epoxy resin formulations. Special processing breaks down pigment agglomerates into individual particles that are wet-out in suspension, preventing re-agglomeration and increasing opacity of the original pigment by 50 to 80 percent.

Series 28 epoxy colorants are pourable and pumpable liquids that blend rapidly and uniformly with epoxy base resins. The colorants are available in 5-, 30-, and 55-gallon containers. For more information, request "Product Properties Bulletin #22."
