Afcona -3236

Organically modified polyalkyl polysiloxane. Acts as a slip and leveling agent with good defoaming effect. Most organically modified polysiloxanes will stabilized foam and this make them not suitable for foam sensitive systems like floor coatings and high build systems. Used in foam sensitive systems (due to none foam stabilizing properties) like solvent-less epoxies, high solid or solvent-less polyurethanes, paints applied by curtain coater, airless spray application and UV curing systems. Also acts as good defoamer and slip agent for baking paints, especially in coil coatings. It has high temperature resistance up to 280°C for 15 minutes. Can also used wood coatings. Is not recommended in high gloss clear coats due to it can cause slight in-can haziness. Addition and dosage : 0.05 – 0.50% on total formulation. In general, under normal conditions, the dosage is 0.05 – 0.2% based on total formulation.
