Abstract

A process for dispersing a particulate solid substance in a continuos aqueous phase comprising the steps of:providing a comminution reactor;providing a particulate solid substance comprising a weak acid functional group, having effective pKa1 >1 and less than 1% by weight aqueous solubility at pH=pKa1 ;providing an aqueous solution consisting essentially of water or a mixture of water with water-miscible solvent, at pH less than the greater of 7 and pKa1 +2;providing a buffering salt of a weak acid, where the weak acid associated with this buffering salt has pKa2 and wherepKa1 -2ࣘpKa2 ;providing milling media;combining said particulate solid substance, said aqueous solution, said buffering salt, and said milling media in said comminution reactor to produce a multiphase mixture; andmilling said mixture to produce a reduced particle size slurry of said particulate solid substance is disclosed.
