Product Features

Afcona-5515 is a dispersing additive for a wide range of water-based coatings. The product is especially suited for the dispersion of inorganic pigments.; Compared with inorganic dispersing agents, e.g. polyphosphate products, the organic polymer- based Afcona-5515 provides improved storage stability of both the pigment dispersion and the formulated paint. There is little or no adverse reaction to high temperatures or pH changes.; Afcona-5515 can be used as supplied.
