AFCONA Aldehyde Resin SH-A81

Chemical Family
Aldehydes

AFCONA Aldehyde Resin SH-A81 is a very effective grind resin for solvent-based systems. Very good solubility and great compatibility in a wide range of solvent-based binders. Aldehyde resin is soluble in almost common paint solvents such as aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, ketones, esters and so on but insoluble in water. Its solubility in non-polar solvents such as mineral oil, aliphatic hydrocarbons, alicyclic hydrocarbons is limited.
