Dispersing of fillers

Fillers are used in the paper industry to increase the whiteness and to thicken the pulp. They are used in the form of aqueous slurries, which, for economic reasons, are produced with the highest possible solids concentration. This can only be achieved by the addition of effective dispersing agents. _Baypure® DS100 is highly effective in this respect and complies with the necessary requirements. It is also ecologically safe.

An example involving the liquefaction of kaoline or lime slurries can be seen in the following diagram. _Baypure® DS100displays a dispersing effect comparable with the best dispersing agents in its class and, on top of this, it is biodegradable. _Baypure® DS100is also suitable for the production of latex based coating compounds.
