AFCONA 3775 is an acrylic polymer tailor made for those applications that need good leveling as well as high defoaming effect like coil coatings and other foam sensitive systems. It is recommended as non-silicone leveling agent where silicone is not permitted due to intercoat adhesion problem.
- Next to the fast initial leveling it also improve the last stage leveling (before the coating become not flowable anymore
- Prevents foam formation
- Works as deareator and defoamer
- Does not interfere with intercoat adhesion
Most leveling agent stabilized foam due to good compatibility and low surface tension. However AFCONA 3775 come with strong defoaming property as well as a very good leveling agent.
