- Product Properties
AFCONA – 5290 another 100% solid dispersant created for high solid systems as well as formulation that facing VOC limitation. AFCONA – 5290 the differences are as below: 1) AFCONA – 5290 is suitable for all solvent based systems ranging from low polar to high polar, including air dry alkyd. 2) AFCONA – 5290 has very good pigment stability and performance. It gives good viscosity reduction and high color strength. 3) AFCONA – 5290 supply in almost 100% active ingredients, therefore, it is an excellent dispersant for high solid coatings like Polyurethane, epoxy and UV coating. 4) The almost 100% solvent-free form makes it also a very interesting dispersant for ink formulations. This due to the free choice of solvents.. Note: 1) AFCONA – 5290 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not influence the dispersing quality.
- Addition and Dosage
Addition and dosage Calculation method for the required amount of active ingredient on pigment: TiO2 : 2 - 3% Other inorganic pigments : 2 - 4% Organic pigments : 20 - 40% Carbon blacks : 20 - 60%. Incorporation AFCONA – 5290 should be incorporated in the mill base before adding the pigments.
