- Incorporation
AFCONA-4565 should be incorporated in the mill base before adding the pigments.
- Storage Condition
AFCONA-4565 should be stored in a cool dry place. When kept in an original unopened container, it will keep up to 3 years from the date of manufacture. The expiry date is indicated on the container.
- Product Properties
AFCONA-4565 is a polymeric dispersant for stabilizing inorganic and organic pigments in water-based systems. It has very good stability performance, through effective steric hindrance and electric repulsion, on all type of pigments. This results in:; Better gloss; Color strength; Flocculation stability; Anti-flooding behavior.; AFCONA-4565 is pH-independent and has a wide compatibility in most commonly used in industrial coatings. AFCONA-4565 does not influence the water resistance. AFCONA-4565 is complete water-soluble and does not necessary has to be neutralized. However, neutralization will improve the viscosity decrease performance. AFCONA-4565 will lose the water dissolving power above 60°C. Therefore, in order to ensure high efficiency, keep milling temperature below 60°C. However, once the temperature is cooled down, the water dissolving power will come back. AFCONA-4565 is recommended for manufacturing of resin free pigment concentrates for decorative as well as for industrial paints. It also can be combined with AFCONA –6225 for better cost saving without compromising any dispersion quality. Please refer to the application section for guide formulations. Note: 1. AFCONA – 4565 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not influence the quality. 2. Color would be a little darker during storage, this will not influence the product quality and performance.
