- Product Applications
Afcona-3835 offers the following benefits:
- Good leveling performance, and, after crosslinking, it gives permanent slip.
- It is suitable for UV and EB curing systems.
- Due to its methacrylate functionality, it also may be used for any systems that use unsaturated bond crosslinking as a primary curing reaction, such as UPE.
- Addition and Dosage
Afcona-3835 may be added at 0.05 - 1.0% based on total formulation. Under normal conditions, 0.1 – 0.5% based on total formulation is sufficient.
- Incorporation
Afcona-3835 should be added during the final stage of the production process. After Afcona – 3835 is added, the production temperatures should remain below 50°C.
