Product Properties

AFCONA-7371 is recommended for unsaturated polyester, PVC, epoxy, and polyurethane resin systems. AFCONA-7371 has high reactivity to the air interface. It will evenly migrate to the surface to provide good leveling and anti-foam properties.; In pigmented systems, AFCONA-7371 will provide an even surface tension gradient that results in anti-floating and anti-flooding. With the fluorocarbon modification, AFCONA - 7371 gives better surface tension reduction properties that result in excellent surface mobility and substrate wetting.; Note: AFCONA-7371 may become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not impact the performance or quality of the product.
