Improving pigment dispersion is one of the important energys of water-based inks and coatings. The three elements of dispersion are the wetting of pigment aggregates, the dispersion of aggregates into fragmented primary particles, and the stability of dispersed particles. In general, full wetting of dispersed compositions can be achieved, but its long-term stability
(
maintaining particle dispersion
)
is not necessarily possible. This can lead to problems such as geling, loss of light, or transparency
(
for opaque pigments, i.e.decrease. The key to getting good pigment wetting
/
processing is to improve the wetting of pigments by utilizing polymers with chemical groups that can be affined to the particle surface. In addition, polymer structures can be designed with sufficient bit resistance stability to provide good long-term dispersion stability by keeping particles dispersed.
Water Repulsion Index
Styrene Malay acid copolymer esters
(SMA

)
has been successfully applied to water-based and solvent-based pigment dispersion, but further research is needed to understand the workings of these materials.
SMA
esters are polymer surfactants that contain both hydrophobic acids, acids and esters, as well as water-repugnant styrene and ester chain groups (
R
), as shown in figure
1
.
To further quantify the balance between hydrophobic and water-repugnance groups in molecules, the following concept of water repugnance index is defined: the total molecular mass of water-repugnance groups

and

and
SMA Ester B

in order to test the pigment dispersion of the new esters, the pigment dispersion was prepared with Lisol bao red, indigo blue and diacetylamine yellow pigment, which is
SMA Ester A
and
SMA Ester B
tested the initial viscosity of the dispersion, the viscosity after storage placement, the color spread, and the ink properties. Unfortunately, all dispersions prepared with new esters are more viscous and less color-spreading than dispersions prepared by
SMA Ester A
and
SMA Ester B
. In this regard, it may be argued that while the water repulsion index of the dispersant may be important, alcohols and the type of ester chain obtained may also be important. Therefore, other esters are prepared with different types of alcohols. The water repudiation index of these esters is shown in table
2
and is compared with the
SMA EsterA
and
SMA Ester B
. It should be noted that all new synthetic esters except
NTX 7643
have a water repugnent index value between the values of
SMA Esters A
and
B
(71.1 - 74.3)
.
to test the performance of these esters, dispersions were prepared with the same red, blue and yellow pigments. In addition, the foaming and deblbling of the ester solutions were tested, and the value of the
VOC
was measured.

SMA
ester foam performance is important because if too much foam is produced during high shear dispersion, it will reduce the efficiency of the dispersant wetting pigment aggregate, resulting in a decrease in color display. In addition, if there is too much air trapped, the fluid characteristics of the dispersion will be difficult to control during the painting process. In order to test the foaming

In addition, the increase in temperature during sample processing can also confirm the high shear force produced during dispersion.
