AFCONA 5051

AFCONA 5051 is a non-ionic dispersant that is used for deflocculating transparent iron oxides, as well as dispersing and stabilizing them. It can also be used as a dispersant for other inorganic pigments and extenders, reducing the viscosity in the dispersion, making it particularly useful in high-filled systems.
