Features & Benefits

Product Properties
  • AFCONA-7502 is recommended for ATH - filled acrylate systems. AFCONA-7502 is designed to increase mechanical properties in highly filled acrylate systems. It wets out and couples the fillers and the resin component in the system, and increases mechanical properties such as flexural strength, compressive strength, and tensile elasticity. AFCONA-7502 does not have an impact on the final product’s weathering or hot water resistance.
  • AFCONA-7502 also improves anti-settling properties during processing or on storage of the liquid product.
  • Note: AFCONA – 7502 may become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not impact the performance or quality of the product.

Applications & Uses

Addition and Dosage

Pigments/filler dispersant:0.1 – 1.0% based on pigment/filler weight

Incorporation

AFCONA-7502 can be incorporated at any stage in the production process with shear. If incorporated after the dispersion process, ensure good distribution by increasing shear.
