Description: SILCOLAPSE® 426R is a water soluble 30% active defoamer designed for use in a variety of industrial applications. It effectively controls foam at concentrations as low as 10 ppm, even at elevated temperatures and under pressure. SILCOLAPSE® 426R gives good results at any pH and is particularly effective in alkaline conditions. Applications: - Industrial: Starch production; Adhesive production; Soap and industrial detergent manufacturing; Insecticides, fungicides and pesticides
- Paper Manufacturing: Wood Pulp Processing; Wash tanks; Glues and pastes
- Petroleum Refining: Gas scrubbing; Antifreeze additives; Cutting Oil additives; Asphalt production
- Synthetic Rubber Processing: Natural or synthetic latex
- Waste Water Treatment
- Sea Water Distillation
- Paints, Inks and Varnishes: Manufacture of aqueous pigments in alkaline pH
- Pesticides
- Textiles: Sizing and Bleaching; High Temperature Dyeing; Printing; Finishing
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 all pH levels, especially alkaline
- Chemically inert in foaming systems – will not alter the properties of the foaming medium
- Heat resistant – withstands temperatures up to 120°C (248°F)
- Low viscosity allows it to be used with automatic injection systems
