AFCONA 4597 is a high molecular weight polymeric dispersant that is ideal for use in water-based decorative and industrial paints. It prevents negative flocculation effects, such as flooding and floating, while also improving storage stability. It is particularly effective for producing water-based, resin-free pigment concentrates.
