Fluorocarbon modified polymer Anti-crater, substrate wetting and leveling agent for solvent-based coatings AFCONA –3277 is the100% active ingredient version of AFCONA –3777. Thus, it has similar performance as AFCONA –3777 in the same solid content form. AFCONA-3277 is a fluorocarbon modified polyacrylic. It can serve as non-silicone leveling agent, where silicone is not permitted due to intercoat adhesion problems. However, we highly recommend the usage of combination with a suitable Polysiloxane for better overall performance, if silicones are permitted. If the requirements are to solve problems caused by high surface tension or to bring down the surface tension strongly, AFCONA-3700 will be a better choice. AFCONA-3700 is also nearly 100% active and due to the higher fluorocarbon content more effective with a lower dosage. AFCONA -3700 has better compatibility properties than AFCONA-3277. However, the foam stabilizing effect is slightly higher. AFCONA-3277: 1) improves levelling 2) prevents cratering 3) helps substrate wetting 4) acts as a defoamer and de-aeration aid 5) does not interfere with intercoat adhesion AFCONA –3277 is recommended for all solvent-based and high solid systems. Due to AFCONA –3277 do not contain any solvent, it very suitable to use in high solids and solvent-free systems like UV, epoxy, polyurethane, PMMA flooring etc.

TYTAN Titanate Coupling & Dispersing Agents are molecular bridges at the interface between inorganic fillers (such as CaCO3, BaSO4, graphite, talc, carbon black, silica and metal oxides) and polymers (such as PP, PE, PVC, PBT, PET, ABS and rubbers). When incorporated into polymers, the coupling agent could improve filler loading, pigment dispersion, processability and composite mechanical properties to achieve the specification desired. As a comparison, silane coupling agents only reacts with hydroxyl groups on the filler surface via water condensation of silanol-siloxane process, therefore it is suitable for glass, alumina hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide etc. The advantage of titanate coupling agents is that they not only react with hydroxyls, but also the free protons on the inorganic interface, which results in the formation of organic monomolecular layers on the inorganic surface forming the bonding for polymers. Dosage is up to the property required and the filler type used is dependent on its surface area, the larger the surface area, the more Tytan titanate coupling & dispersing agent are needed. As a guide, the general dosage range is 0.2% ~ 2.0% by weight of filler.

Tytan coupling agents can enhance the dispersion of inorganic fillers in polymer systems such as PP, PE, by modifying the surface of filler particles. The content of fillers can therefore be increased, saving the cost of polymer, while maintaining the mechanical property.
