Product Properties

AFCONA-5220 helps to wet and disperse inorganic pigments, mainly TiO2, and extenders. AFCONA – 5220 is special designed as effective dispersant for TiO2. Therefore, recommended for pure white systems. AFCONA – 5220 has below special properties and recommended in below systems:; AFCONA – 5220 is tailor made as effective dispersant for TiO2 and extenders.; It has very good viscosity reduction properties. In high extender loaded systems, like UPE in artificial marble, AFCONA 5220 gives very strong viscosity reduction to allow higher filler loading.; Due to the effective viscosity reduction, it also decreases dispersing time.; AFCONA-5220 is particularly suitable for the following coating systems: -Automotive (OEM and refinish) -General industrial -Coil coating -Acid curing -UPE -Epoxy -Polyurethane; In electrostatic spraying system for pure white paint, AFCONA – 5220 gives the highest gloss performance.; Note: AFCONA – 5220 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. Even at -15° C the slight haziness stay the same. This will not influence the quality.

Addition and Dosage
  • 1.0 - 4.0% based on TiO2 or extenders
  • 3.0 - 10.0% based on other inorganic pigments
Storage Information

AFCONA-5220 should be stored in a cool dry place. When kept in an original unopened container, it will keep up to 5 years from the date of manufacture. The expiry date is indicated on the container.
