CLEVELAND, Ohio – Feb. 4, 2025 – Lubrizol furthers its commitment to dispersant technology innovation by announcing the availability of Solsperse™ W60 Hyperdispersant.

Solsperse™ W60 is a 90%-active, APE-free polymeric dispersant designed to improve pigment dispersion and stability in aqueous-based coatings. With excellent compatibility in oil-based alkyd paints, it enables universal colorants which can be used for both water and solvent-containing architectural base paints. Solsperse™ W60 is also effective at dispersing both organic and inorganic materials, making it ideal for paint systems that contain high levels of fillers along with the pigment.

“This latest innovation in dispersant technology can also be used as a post-additive, improving compatibility between water-based colorants and a variety of base paint chemistries,” shares Alison Drasdo, global marketing manager, Lubrizol. “With high color development, color strength, and pigment loading, the compatibility of Solsperse W60 expands the capabilities of universal colorants."
