  • HMW unsaturated carboxylic acid wetting and dispersing agent for solvent-based systems. Silicone-free version of 5065, no foam stabilizing effect. Stronger anti-settling properties.
  • Alkylol ammonium salt of a HMW carboxylic acid wetting and dispersing agent for water and solvent-based systems. Very good anti-settling effect. Extremely suitable for wash primers.
  • OH-functional unsaturated modified carboxylic acid for wetting and dispersing in solvent-based systems. Designed for stabilization of all kinds of pigments in air-drying alkyds.
  • Fatty acid modified polyamide economical grade wetting and dispersing agent for solvent-based pigment dispersions. Designed to replace first-generation products such as 5044, 5054, 5207. Stabilizes pigments through electrical charge repulsion forces. Very effective in bentonite gel preparation. 100% active version of 5009.
  • Acidic polyester phosphorous wetting and dispersing agent for both water and solvent-based systems. 100% active version of 5010.
  • Fluorocarbon modified polyacrylic Anti-crater, substrate wetting and leveling agent for solvent-based coatings AFCONA-3670 is an improved version of AFCONA-3777 on managing surface control of coatings. It has lower surface tension than AFCONA -3777. The combination with a suitable polysiloxane for better overall performance is highly recommended. Due to the fluorocarbon modification, it gives lower surface tension than normal pure acrylic leveling agents. Therefore, it gives better anti-crater and improved substrate wetting. The obvious performances of AFCONA-3670 are: 1. improve leveling 2. prevent craters 3. help substrate wetting 4. act as a defoamer and de-aeration aid 5. do not interfere with intercoat adhesion AFCONA-3670 is suitable for all solvent based coatings, especially: 1. baking paints, as leveling and anti-crater agent 2. PU coatings, as leveling, anti-crater and anti inner bubble agent 3. epoxies, as leveling and anti-crater agent
  • Unsaturated polyamide and acid ester salt for wetting and dispersing in solvent-based systems.
  • HMW carboxylic acid polymer for wetting and dispersing in solvent-based systems. Suitable to stabilize transparent iron oxide pigments. Can be used as a dispersant for other inorganic pigments and extenders to reduce the dispersion viscosity, making it useful in highly filled systems.
  • Cationic/anionic co-polymer with pigment affinity groups for wetting and dispersing in solvent-based systems. Improved version of 5207 with broader resin compatibility. Offers near-HMWD performance at a price point closer to conventional agents.
