AgeSin® DP-G2522 – High-Performance Pigment Synergist - Effective Alternative to Lubrizol Solsperse 22000

Product Overview

AgeSin® DP-G2522 is a 100% active organic pigment derivative specifically formulated to work synergistically with hyperdispersants in solvent-based coating systems. It serves as a direct and cost-effective alternative to Lubrizol Solsperse™ 22000.


When used in combination with a primary polymeric hyperdispersant, AgeSin® DP-G2522 significantly enhances pigment dispersion efficiency, reduces viscosity, and improves the overall stability of pigment dispersions – particularly for challenging orange, yellow, and red organic pigments.


Key Features & Benefits

100% Active Formulation

AgeSin® DP-G2522 is supplied as a 100% active orange powder, delivering maximum efficiency without the need for solvent removal or adjustment.


Synergistic Performance

Designed as a co-dispersant or pigmentary synergist, it delivers superior results when used in conjunction with primary hyperdispersants. The synergistic effect enhances the anchoring of dispersant molecules onto pigment surfaces, improving both dispersion quality and long-term stability.


Effective Viscosity Reduction

Creates excellent viscosity‑breaking effects, facilitating the grinding process, improving flow, and enabling higher pigment loading.


Targeted Dispersion

Specifically boosts the dispersion quality and stability of orange, yellow, and red organic pigments – shades that are notoriously difficult to stabilize in solvent-based systems.


Improved Color Strength & Rheology

Delivers increased pigment concentration, optimized rheological characteristics, and enhanced tinctorial (color) properties.

How It Works

AgeSin® DP-G2522 functions as a pigmentary synergist – a specialized additive that works alongside a primary polymeric dispersant to improve pigment dispersion and stability.


In solvent-based systems, organic pigments (particularly reds, yellows, and oranges) often present challenges due to their complex surface chemistry and strong inter-particle attraction. AgeSin® DP-G2522 modifies the pigment surface, creating more effective anchoring sites for the primary dispersant. This dual mechanism results in:

  • Faster pigment wetting

  • Reduced grinding time

  • Lower viscosity at higher pigment loads

  • Improved color development and gloss

  • Enhanced long-term stability against flocculation and settling


Recommended Systems

AgeSin® DP-G2522 is ideal for use in:

  • Automotive coatings – OEM and refinish

  • Industrial paints – high-performance solvent-based systems

  • Offset inks – publication and packaging gravure

  • Acrylic, alkyd, amino, and polyurethane systems


Recommended Dosage

Typically used at approximately 25% of the primary hyperdispersant's dosage. The optimal amount should be determined based on the specific pigment, resin system, and formulation requirements.

Example: If your formulation uses 4% primary dispersant (based on pigment weight), start with approximately 1% AgeSin® DP-G2522 as a synergist.

AgeSin® DP-G2522 is positioned as a reliable, cost-effective alternative to Solsperse™ 22000, delivering comparable synergist performance for red, yellow, and orange pigment dispersions.


Applications

  • Automotive coatings – basecoats and topcoats requiring high color strength and stability

  • Industrial paints – solvent-based systems for metal, plastic, and wood substrates

  • Offset printing inks – high-quality publication and packaging inks

  • Color paste grinding – as a co-dispersant in millbase formulations

  • PU and acrylic systems – where pigment dispersion stability is critical


Incorporation Guidelines

  1. Add AgeSin® DP-G2522 to the grinding stage together with the primary hyperdispersant.

  2. Disperse with the pigment before adding the remaining formulation components.

  3. Optimal dosage should be determined through laboratory testing based on the specific pigment and resin system.


Packaging & Storage

  • Packaging: 25 kg drum

  • Storage: Keep in dry, clean, well‑ventilated warehouse. Avoid exposure to light and heat. Protect from leakage, rain, and direct sunlight during transportation.

  • Shelf life: 24 months in original unopened packaging. Products beyond the shelf life may continue to be used after inspection.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: AgeSin® DP-G2522 is a pigmentary synergist that works together with a primary polymeric hyperdispersant to improve pigment dispersion and stability in solvent-based systems.


Q: Is AgeSin® DP-G2522 a direct replacement for Solsperse™ 22000?

A: Yes. AgeSin® DP-G2522 is positioned as a direct and cost-effective alternative to Lubrizol Solsperse™ 22000. It offers comparable synergist performance for dispersing organic pigments in solvent-based coatings and inks.


Q: What pigments does AgeSin® DP-G2522 work best with?

A: It is specifically effective for orange, yellow, and red organic pigments – shades that are often challenging to disperse and stabilize in solvent-based systems.


Q: What is the recommended dosage?

A: Typically used at approximately 25% of the primary hyperdispersant's dosage. The optimal amount should be determined by formulation testing based on the specific pigment and resin system.


Q: In which systems can AgeSin® DP-G2522 be used?

A: It is recommended for alcohol‑acrylic, acrylic, amino, and PU systems – particularly in solvent-based industrial paints and automotive coatings.


Q: Does AgeSin® DP-G2522 work alone?

A: No. AgeSin® DP-G2522 is designed as a co-dispersant or synergist – it must be used in conjunction with a primary polymeric hyperdispersant to achieve optimal dispersion results.
