Features & Benefits
- Materials Features
- Product Properties
- AFCONA-7909 is recommended for unsaturated polyester, epoxies, and polyurethane resin systems. AFCONA-7909 has very good viscosity depressing properties in highly filled systems. It is very suitable for systems with high filler loads like ATH, or artificial marble systems.
- Due to it high acidic functionality, AFCONA - 7909 also can be used in BMC systems as a viscosity stabilizer.
- AFCONA-7909 also has very good wetting power to fiberglass.
Applications & Uses
- Compatible Polymers & Resins
- Compatible Reinforcements
- Addition and Dosage
- Pigments/filler dispersant:0.5 - 5.0% based on pigment/filler weight
- Viscosity stabilizer:0.2 – 1.0 based on resin weight
- Incorporation
AFCONA-7909 should be incorporated in the mill base before adding pigments or fillers. If used as a post-add, please apply high shear force to disperse the system.
