- Product Properties
- AFCONA-4071 is the result of an innovative concept of polyurethane dispersants. This technology is based on a newly-developed intermediate monomer and anchoring groups.
- AFCONA – 4071 has excellent performance dispersing carbon black. It gives very good blue undertones with high jetness.
- AFCONA – 4071 will not experience crystallization at low temperatures. Even at -15° C only slight haziness will be observed.
- This product offers good overall pigment stability, tinting strength and color brightness.
Note: AFCONA – 4071 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not influence the dispersing properties of this product.

- Application Details
Addition and dosage: Add AFCONA-4071 according to the dosages listed below, which should be calculated based on the percent of active ingredient in the dispersant and the weight of pigment in the formula:
- TiO2 : 2 - 3%
- Other inorganic pigments : 2 - 4%
- Organic pigments : 20 - 40%
- Carbon blacks : 20 - 60%
Incorporation: AFCONA-4071 should be incorporated in the mill base before adding the pigments.
