Low molecular weight wetting and dispersing agents are additives with relatively small molecular sizes (typically several hundred to around one thousand Daltons). They act by rapidly reducing surface tension and wetting pigment or filler surfaces to aid in initial dispersion. Although they provide fast wetting, their long-term anti-flocculation performance is limited. They are commonly used in solventborne or waterborne paints, primers, and general-purpose pigment concentrates.
