Non Ionic 100% Active Fluorosurfactant - Application: Industrial

FLURODYNE FC3866

High-Performance Fluorosurfactant for Coatings, Inks & Industrial Applications

FLURODYNE FC3866 is a high-performance non-ionic polymeric fluorochemical surfactant designed to provide exceptionally low surface tension in both aqueous and organic coating systems.

It is an effective wetting, levelling, flow and surface-control additive for a wide variety of waterborne, solvent-borne, high-solids and radiation-curable polymer systems.

Key Benefits

FLURODYNE FC3866 helps improve:

• Substrate wetting
• Surface tension reduction
• Flow and levelling
• Coating uniformity
• Surface appearance
• Coverage over difficult-to-wet substrates
• Intercoat and substrate wetting
• Reduction of surface defects caused by poor wetting
• Performance at very low addition levels

The product offers good compatibility with a wide range of polymer and resin systems and remains surface-active during the drying and curing process.

In waterborne systems, FLURODYNE FC3866 helps reduce aqueous/organic interfacial tension, thereby improving wetting, spreading and overall coating performance.

Typical Applications

FLURODYNE FC3866 is recommended for use in:

• Waterborne Coatings
• Solvent-Borne Coatings
• High-Solids Coatings
• Epoxy Flooring Systems
• Polyurethane Coatings
• Industrial Inks
• Printing Inks
• Soldering Fluxes
• Metal Treatment Chemicals
• Adhesives
• Sealants
• Radiation / UV-Curable Coatings
• Specialty Industrial Coatings

Why Use FLURODYNE FC3866?

Even at relatively low doses, FLURODYNE FC3866 can significantly improve a formulation's ability to spread on low-surface-energy substrates. This makes it particularly useful in cases where conventional hydrocarbon or silicone surfactants do not provide sufficient wetting or reduce surface tension sufficiently.
