Description: SILCOLAPSE 490 is a defoamer compound containing polydimethylsiloxane oil and silica. Applications: - SILCOLAPSE 490 is multi-purpose:
- Pulp industry: recommended for use in the various processing steps (cooking, washing, screening, bleaching and sewage treatment).
- Detergency: liquids and powdered detergent, soap.
- Chemicals: distillation, extraction, filtration. SILCOLAPSE 490 is particularly effective in highly foaming systems
- SILCOLAPSE 490 can also be used in emulsion form or as a booster to silicon and / or organic foam-control agents. In the last case, compatibility of SILCOLAPSE 490 with the organic system must be previously verified.
Advantages:- Good defoaming efficiency at high temperature.
- Easy to use: it can be used as delivered, or pre-diluted in a solvent.
- Low dose efficiency, at around 1 to 100 mg per kg of system to be defoamed.
- High efficiency in alkaline conditions.
- Chemically inert regarding the substance to be defoamed therefore leaving its properties unchanged.
