- Product Properties
AFCONA 3770 is a fluorocarbon modified acrylic polymer. Besides acting as an effective leveling agent, it also gives strong defoaming effect as well as anti-crater properties. In most systems, the defoaming effect is less than AFCONA 3775, but better than AFCONA 3777 or AFCONA 3670.; Improves leveling performance; Prevents foam formation; Works as de-aerator and defoamer; Improves substrate wetting and anti-crater performance; Does not interfere with intercoat adhesion
