Product Overview
AFCONA - 2024 is a unique defoamer. It has very strong defoaming and anti-foam performances with additional good levelling. This in contrary with most of the other defoamers, which influence the levelling performance negatively. Defoamers Silicone free polymer AFCONA -2024 is suitable for solvent- based coatings, printing inks and thermosetting resin systems. It eliminates foam and blistering, regardless whether the air bubbles are caused by the substrate. As mentioned, AFCONA-2024 has very strong defoaming as well as anti-foaming properties. In most cases, the de-aeration property is satisfactory. To improve further the de-aereation performance, a combination with silicone defoamers like: AFCONA-2023 or AFCONA2045 at 0.1-0.2% is recommended. AFCONA-2024 is particularly suitable for the following applications:1) Nitrocellulose lacquers and acid-cured wood finishes especially those applied by curtain coaters2) Two-component polyurethane lacquers, except for high gloss clear (due to it high incompatibility), which are applied by spraying or brushing3) Cold cured epoxy resin systems, as well as unsaturated polyester systems (SMC, BMC and gel coats)4) Baking paint applied by curtain coater and dipping5) Any other solvent based system where in-can transparency is not important likes coloured and matted systems. Not suitable for air dry alkyd systems Afcona Additives Afcona Additives Additives and Modifiers,Anti foaming agent Paints coatings and inks AFCONA-2024 is particularly suitable for the following applications:
