Afcona USA Inc.

  • Modified polyurethane polymer dispersant for solvent based systems. Mainly used in preparation of pigment concentrates due to good compatibility and price advantage. Can be utilized as a dispersant in normal grinding, especially for inorganic pigments.
  • Organically modified polysiloxane for aqueous systems. Short chain polysiloxane with no influence on intercoat adhesion in multi-coat systems. Very strong anti-cratering. Must be used in combination with a suitable defoamer. Recommended for electro deposition coatings and all other water-based systems.
  • Modified polyacrylic polymeric dispersant for solvent-based systems (low to high polarity including TPA). High thixotrophy resulting in higher grind viscosity compared to polyurethane-based dispersants. Improves gloss, DOI and color strength while reducing flooding & floating.
  • Modified polyurethane polymeric dispersant for solvent-based systems. High molecular weight with very good pigment stability performance. Designed for organic reds and other difficult-to-disperse pigments. Recommended for epoxies, coil coatings, fluorocarbon coatings and other high quality applications.
  • Modified polyurethane polymeric dispersant for medium to low-polar, solvent-based systems. Suitable for can or coil coatings and polyester resin systems.
  • Modified polyurethane polymeric dispersant for solvent-based systems. Lower-cost alternative to 4046. Very good dispersing for broad range of pigments. Recommended for polyurethane, baking paint and epoxy.
  • Modified polyurethane polymeric dispersant for solvent-based systems. Universal and efficient for all pigments, including organic and carbon black. Improves dry film gloss and prevents floating/flooding.
  • Modified polyurethane polymeric dispersant for solvent-based systems. Developed for co-grinding purposes for coil and can coatings, baking polyesters or acrylics, epoxies and polyurethane systems. Best co-grinding agent Afcona has to offer.
  • Solution of acidic polyester phosphorous dispersing and wetting agent specifically designed for pure white paints in solvent-based systems. Very good viscosity reduction. Suitable for most solvent-based systems. Not suitable for air-drying ink systems.
  • Universal unsaturated polyamide and acid ester salt dispersant and wetting agent for all solvent-based systems. Can be used to prepare bentointe gels. An economic replacement for 5044.
  • Special bloc-copolymer dispersant for water-based systems. Designed with superior water-resistance. Designed for use in both architectural paints and general industrial coatings as well as water-based colorants. Yields lower viscosity, stable dispersions with higher color strength and good in-can stability.
  • High molecular weight dispersant that is pH independent for all pigments. Can be used in resin free concentrates.  Also used for color acceptance in let down media.
