Product Features

Afcona-6228 is a product specially developed to reduce the viscsity in highly pigmented universal colorants. It allow to maintain an excellent fluidity without harming the general compatibilities.; Afcona – 6228 has below special properties: Afcona-6228 is highly compatible in water-based and solvent based systems. Afcona-6228 is particularly indicated to improve the compatibility of universal colorants in high solids or urethane modified long oil alkyd systems solvent based. Afcona-6228 can be used also as dispersing agent in those systems where the presence of functional groups can harm the stability; such as cationic emulsions. Afcona – 6228 fulfill the requirements of alimentary contact according to FDA 21, CFR 176.210 and 175.105; Afcona-6228 is highly compatible in water-based and solvent based systems.; Afcona-6228 is particularly indicated to improve the compatibility of universal colorants in high solids or urethane modified long oil alkyd systems solvent based.; Afcona-6228 can be used also as dispersing agent in those systems where the presence of functional groups can harm the stability; such as cationic emulsions.; Afcona – 6228 fulfill the requirements of alimentary contact according to FDA 21, CFR 176.210 and 175.105; Note: Afcona – 6228 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not influence the quality.

Storage Condition

Afcona-6228 should be stored in a cool dry place.
