- Typical Properties
- Product Properties
AFCONA-3251 is improve version of AFCONA-3250. It specially developed to further improve the leveling performance. Most polysiloxane with good transparency stabilize foam, or, when not stabilizing foam affect the transparency of the coating. Thus AFCONA-3251 fulfillll all the needs of most paint formulators where it gives very good slip, no foam stabilizing effect and good transparency. D
uo to the excellent properties of AFCONA- 3251 is very suitable for use in:
1) all wood coatings like NC,Acid curing, PU, and UV. Slip is always one of the most important measurements for wood coatings.
2) Top coats in plastic coating applications like mobile phone and those plastic items that frequently touched by our hand. In these applications, slip is very important.
3) UV coatings, where is gives very good slip and leveling without influence the clarity of the paint film.
4) Refinish topcoat that based on polyurethane.
5) In air dry alkyd, it also show very good leveling and high slip performances. The dosage in this system is very low,0,02%- 0.05% on total formulation.
6) Other paint systems where high slip is desired.
Note:AFCONA-3251 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5℃. This will not influence the quality
