The Afcona 5000 Series is a range conventional wetting and dispersing agents.
Afcona 5008 is a universal dispersant for all solvent-based systems. Based on unsaturated polyamide and acid ester salts, it can be used to prepare bentonite gels.
Afcona 5010 is a special dispersant for pure white paints. It has very good viscosity reduction. It is suitable for most solvent-based systems but not air drying alkyd systems.
Afcona 5030 is an amine rich dispersing agent for carbon blacks and organic pigments. It has been developed for artificial leather, PU, alkyd, polyamide and printing ink systems.
A non-ionic dispersant mainly developed for dispersing and stabilising transparent iron oxide pigments. It could also be used as a dispersant for other inorganic pigments and extenders where it reduces the viscosity in the dispersion, making it useful for high filled systems. Afcona 5051 gives optimum transparency, high colour strength and better storage stability.
A solvent-free wetting and dispersing agent which offers a modern and economical countertype to many old fashioned dispersing agents. Afcona 5209 stabilises the pigments through electrical charge repulsion forces. It is very effective in bentonite gel preparation.
Afcona 5251 is a dispersant mainly developed for dispersing and stabilising iron oxide pigments. It could also be used as a dispersant for other inorganic pigments and extenders, where it reduces viscosity of the dispersion. It is very suitable in high fill systems or high solid applications.
Afcona 5290 is very suitable for all solvent-based systems ranging from low polar to high polar, including air dry alkyd, epoxy, PU and all baking paints. It has very good pigment stability, good viscosity reduction and high colour strength. Supplied in 100% active ingredients, Afcona 5290 is an excellent dispersant for polyurethane, epoxy and UV coating.
