AFCONA-5066 has the same chemical structure as AFCONA-5065, but without silicone. The usages are the same as AFCONA-5065. It also can be used as additive for post addition to solve flooding and floating problems. Combination with a suitable High Molecular Weight Dispersant can be used as co-grinding agent. However, the performance of AFCONA- 5065 in most cases is better.
AFCONA – 5066 has below special properties and recommended in below systems:
1) The performance and usage is almost the same as AFCONA – 5065. However AFCONA – 5066 do not contain any polysiloxane. Therefore, in many cases, in foam sensitive systems like coil coatings, floor coatings and those coatings applied by curtain coater, AFCONA – 5066 is more preferable.
2) If polysiloxane is needed in the grinding phase, for better wetting and increasing grinding speed, the use of AFCONA non foam stabilizing polysiloxanes, such as AFCONA – 3236, AFCONA – 3238 and AFCONA – 3239 are recommended.
3) AFCONA-5066 is especially suited for medium to high-polar binder systems like:- Alkyd/amino resin combinations
- Nitro-cellulose systems
- Polyurethane systems
- Acrylic polyisocyanate systems (2-pack acrylics)
- Chlorinated polymers
4) AFCONA-5066 is not compatible with white spirit or paints which are diluted with white spirit.
