AFCONA-2723 can be used in pigmented and non-pigmented resin systems such as:
- unsaturated polyesters (SMC/BMC gel coats and synthetic mortars)
- two-pack epoxies
- polyester/melamine heat-cured systems
- PVC-compounds
In highly pigmented and high viscosity systems, incorporation of a suitable dispersing agent will reduce the viscosity and improve de-aeration. Products such as AFCONA – 5010 are suitable for extender-rich systems, while AFCONA – 4070 and AFCONA – 4047 are suitable for inorganic and organic pigments.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Polymers & Resins
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Coating Type
- Incorporation
- To prevent foam - and bubble-formation, AFCONA-2723 should be added at the beginning of the production process or application into the system. If it is added at the end of the formulation, good dispersion must be ensured.
- Addition and Dosage
- 0.1 -0.5% on total formulation. Under normal conditions, 0.1 - 0.3% based on total formulation is sufficient.
Properties
