Properties
- Typical Properties
- Product Properties
AFCONA – 4011 is an improve version of AFCONA 4010 with better balance between price and performance. AFCONA-4011 is a polymeric dispersant principally developed for stabilizing inorganic pigments like TiO2, Iron oxides and matting agents. It can be used in almost all solvent- based coating systems, because AFCONA – 4011 has very good compatibility with almost all resin used in coatings.
The special properties and recommended systems for AFCONA – 4011 as below:
1) AFCONA – 4011 is a very good dispersant for TiO2 as it gives better whiteness and hiding power.
2) AFCONA – 4011 is widely used in preparation of matting agent pastes. It gives better matting agent orientation, constant gloss level after storage and soft feel matting appearance.
3) AFCONA – 4011 can be used as co- grinding dispersant in mill bases. It also can act as post adding additive for correction of flooding and floating effects.
4) Mostly, AFCONA – 4011 is used as dispersant for inorganic pigments and some organic pigments. In case, AFCONA – 4011 fail with organic pigments, other more effective and higher molecular weight AFCONA polymeric dispersants must be used. It is always possible to mix combinations of pigments stabilized with AFCONA-4011 and organic pigments stabilized with higher molecular weight dispersants. AFCONA – 4011 is an improve version of AFCONA 4010 with better balance between price and performance. AFCONA-4011 is a polymeric dispersant principally developed for stabilizing inorganic pigments like TiO2, Iron oxides and matting agents. It can be used in almost all solvent- based coating systems, because AFCONA – 4011 has very good compatibility with almost all resin used in coatings.
Note: AFCONA – 4011 will become slightly hazy at temperature 5°C and below, but this will not influent the quality
