| After oven aging at 50°C | ||||||||
| After 24h | ||||||||
| 6501, 6500-50, and 6110 all exhibited persistent bubbles that did not dissipate. | 6501A, 6910A, 0301, and 6111 exhibited a 1-mm layer separation. | Dispersant 6976 demonstrated better performance. | ||||||
| 7-Day Data | Formulation without 4410 | |||||||
| All dispersants showed only minor differences in anti-settling performance. | ||||||||
| Formulation with 4410 | ||||||||
| After the addition of 4410, the formulation with 6910A showed the least amount of sediment, and the difference was minor. | ||||||||

| Conclusion | ||||||||
| Dispersant 6910A demonstrated the best viscosity reduction, with a marginal difference between 0.3% and 0.5% loadings. Following 7 days of quiescent aging, minimal variation was observed in the sedimentation prevention of all dispersants. The incorporation of additive 4410, however, notably enhanced anti-settling performance. |
