| Description: SILCOLAPSE® 723 is a non-ionic aqueous 30% active silicone antifoam and/or defoamer. It offers excellent antifoam and defoaming properties in a wide variety of aqueous applications including those with incidental food contact as well as food processing applications. The product effectively controls foam at concentrations as low as 10 ppm solids, even at elevated temperatures. The product gives good results at wide-ranging pH and provides a cost effective solution where foam is a problem. Applications: SILCOLAPSE® 723 is a broad spectrum antifoaming and defoaming agent which can be used to control or destroy foam in many industrial, food processing and food contact applications. Typical applications in which it can be used include: - Beverages, Juices, Sauces and Soup: Many food and beverage applications generate foam, SILCOLAPSE® 723 will reduce or eliminate foam problems during the processing of many food and beverage applications.
- Fruit and Vegetable Washing and Processing: Many fruit and vegetable processes generate foam, SILCOLAPSE® 723 will reduce or eliminate foam in raw fruit and vegetable washing, potato processing and sugar beet and sugar cane processing.
- Dairy Products: Dairy and cheese production and processing can generate foam SILCOLAPSE® 723 will reduce or eliminate foam problems during the processing in many dairy production processes.
- Meat, Poultry and Seafood: Meat, poultry and seafood production and processing can generate foam SILCOLAPSE® 723 will reduce or eliminate foam problems in meat and poultry rendering, egg washing and seafood processing and production.
- Fats and oils: Production and processing materials into edible fats and oils can generate foam SILCOLAPSE® 723 will reduce or eliminate foam problems during processing and production
- Water/ Effluent Treatment: Aerobic and anaerobic water treatment; activated sludge processes, food plant waste water treatment and cooling towers.
Features: - Easy to use – as supplied or pre-diluted in water or in the medium to be defoamed
- Cost efficient, effective in doses as low as 10 ppm
- Highly effective in most aqueous media, and at many pH levels
- Chemically inert in foaming systems – will not alter the properties of the foaming medium
- Heat resistant – works at application temperatures up to 120°C (248°F)
- Low viscosity allows it to be used with automatic metering systems
