This article presents the results of studying the disaggregation of titanium dioxide in water-dispersion compositions based on an acrylic film-forming agent under the action of a surfactant. The possibility of using polyether siloxane copolymer (PC) and sodium polyacrylate (NaPA) in paint and varnish compositions as modifying additives of the dispersing effect is proved. The correlation between the dispersing effect of surfactants and the amount of their adsorption on the pigment is proved. NaPA, which provides a greater reduction in adsorption strength, demonstrates a greater dispersing effect than PC. It was found that the larger the size of the aggregates of pigment particles, the greater the disjoining pressure created by the surfactant. An equation is derived that generalizes the cumulative contribution of surfactant concentration and the content of the film-forming agent in suspensions to the average particle diameter of pigment. The introduction of NaPA in the amount of 0.25 g/dm3 into the paint allows the rate of acid corrosion to be reduced by 2 times, the number of pores in the coating to be decreased, and the adhesion of the coating to be significantly increased (by 2 points according to ISO 11845: 2020).
