- Product Properties
AFCONA-4530 is a polymeric dispersant for stabilizing inorganic and organic pigments in water-based systems. Through effective steric hindrance and electrostatic repulsion an excellent stability performance on all type of pigments is given. AFCONA-4530 is an innovative polyurethane dispersant for water-based coating. Compared to the common polyacrylic types, it has below better performances: 1) Better color strength 2) Better pigment stability 3) Better color development 4) Less foam formation 5) pH independent 6) VOC free AFCONA-4530 recommended for manufacturing resin free pigment concentrate for decorative as well as for industrial paints. It 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: AFCONA – 4530 will become slightly hazy at temperatures below 5° C. This will not influence the quality
