Product Properties
  • AFCONA - 3700P is a fluorocarbon modified polyacrylate in powder delivery form designed for powder coatings. It can serve as a non - silicone leveling agent to promote anti-crater, leveling and substrate wetting in powder coating systems.
  • AFCONA - 3700P has a higher fluorocarbon content than AFCONA – 3277P. It has much lower surface tension and therefore, AFCONA – 3700P dramatically reduces surface tension of coating systems. This makes it very effective as an anti-crater and flow control agent for all powder coating systems.
  • AFCONA - 3700P is an excellent anti-crater and substrate wetting agent. AFCONA-3700P is especially suitable for all powder coating systems.
