Silicone Defoamer

Product overview

A silicone defoamer for water treatment and industrial aqueous systems, providing foam knockdown and suppression. Determine dose by trials in the actual medium and conditions. For compatible aqueous process liquids and water systems. Evaluate dispersion, persistence and downstream compatibility in the actual medium; determine maintenance dose through small-scale trials and continuous operation.

Typical applications

• High-foaming aqueous systems Rapidly suppresses and breaks foam in industrial circulating water, cleaners and compatible systems.
• Cleaning and wastewater foam control For persistent surfactant-related foam in baths, wastewater and circulation systems.
• Low-dose online addition Feed continuously or intermittently at foam sources or upstream; establish the lowest effective dose by trial.

Key benefits

• Knockdown and suppression Removes existing foam and controls further formation.
• Aqueous system applications For industrial water and treatment processes specified in the TDS.
• Flexible treatment addition For continuous or intermittent foam control in compatible aqueous processes.

Application guidelines

1. Conduct a bench test with the actual foaming liquid. Confirm downstream and biological-system compatibility.
2. Add directly or prepare as specified, using a location that promotes dispersion.
3. Check knockdown speed, persistence and downstream effects; maintain a process-appropriate dose.

Use the current product TDS for operating parameters and the SDS for handling, storage and transport. Confirm compatibility under your process conditions.
