AFCONA 5285

Generic Family: Additive -- PlasticizerSupplied by: AFCONA Additives Sdn Bhd
Wetting and dispersing additive for solvent based paints.

Product Properties:
  • AFCONA - 5285 is an acidic termination of alkyl ethoxylated co-polymer. The acidic group gives very good anchoring effect in base pigments like inorganic as well as matting agents. It will help in viscosity reduction of filler and extender dispersions.

AFCONA - 5285 has below special properties and recommended in below systems:
  • Very good dispersant for matting agent pastes. Gives better transparency compared to AFCONA - 4010.
  • Very good in viscosity reduction. Therefore, suitable as dispersant for high filler loaded systems.
  • Also suitable for oil and solvent-based printing inks especially for inorganic pigment and filler dispersions in alcohol rich systems.
  • It also helps to reduce the interfacial tension between pigments or extenders and the vehicle. Therefore, it will help to shorten the grinding time.
  • It can be used in all resin systems ranging from non-polar to high-polar systems like air dry alkyd, acid curing, polyurethane, and epoxy.
  • It's also suitable for all kinds of pigments ranging from inorganic, organic, and carbon black. It is also suitable for co-grinding.

Note: AFCONA - 5285 will become hazy or even crystallize at temperatures below 15° C. Re-heat the material before use if crystallization happens. This will not influence the quality of AFCONA - 5285.
