摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a branched addition copolymer as a dispersant in a gaseous, liquid or solid formulation in a range of applications and to the copolymers per se wherein the copolymer is obtainable by an addition polymerisation process, wherein said copolymer comprises: at least two chains which are covalently linked by a bridge other than at their ends and wherein the at least two chains comprise at least one ethylenically monounsaturated monomer, and wherein the bridge comprises at least one ethylenically polyunsaturated monomer and wherein the polymer comprises a residue of a chain transfer agent and wherein the mole ratio of polyunsaturated monomer(s) to monounsaturated monomer(s) is in a range of from 1:100 to 1:4 and wherein the branched copolymer dispersant contains anchoring, solubilising or stabilising moieties and wherein the resulting copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of less than 100,000 Da.
