Product Overview
Defoamers Silicone containing defoamer AFCONA- 2038 is in the same category defoamer as AFCONA – 2018, both have good transparency but AFCONA – 2038 contain silicone and AFCONA 2018 does not contain silicone. In many resin systems, AFCONA – 2038 gives better transparency than AFCONA – 2018.AFCONA-2038 has the highest in can and dry film transparency. AFCONA-2038 is recommended when AFCONA-2018 gives unacceptable transparency. Combination with AFCONA – 2722 or AFCONA – 2725 in
