- Product Properties
AFCONA – 2727 is a silicone-based product developed to produce rapid de-aeration of polyurethane and epoxy compounds used in flooring or general industrial application. This is the most effective defoamer for epoxy selfleveling system. AFCONA - 2727 also acts as a very good leveling agent, giving a smooth surface to the coating. It functions differently from AFCONA 2722 and AFCONA – 2726 as the silicone is an alkyl-polyether modification where it gives very good de-aeration AFCONA-2727 is recommended for filled and unfilled polyurethane and epoxy compounds used in flooring application as well as UPE system
