TEGO® Color Aid 7066

TEGO® Color Aid 7066 is a wetting and dispersing additive for waterborne formulations. It can be post added to the paint and helps the color strength development and color acceptance, so it works like a compatibilizer. When used as main dispersant, TEGO® Color Aid 7066 stabilizes inorganic pigments, especially iron oxide black.
