OLKLlN- DF, an anti-foaming agent, is usefulin eliminating various kinds of troubles causedby foaming in processes of a variety ofindustries handling surfactants, water-solublehigh-molecular compounds, or the like arehandled, such as, for example, the fiberindustry, dyeing industry, paper and pulpindustry, synthetic resin industry, dye industry, and oil field / refinery industry in order toprevent various troubles caused by foaming.
Efficient Foam Control for Industrial NeedsSilicon based defoamers offer robust foam suppression, making them ideal for challenging industrial processes such as in the paper industry and water treatment facilities. Their quick action and consistent quality help maintain operational stability, reduce downtime, and improve process results across a broad spectrum of industrial applications.
Easy Application with Flexible DosageThis defoamer can be tailored to your plants unique requirements by varying the dosage, typically ranging between 5 and 7 g/L of a 10% solution. For severe foam problem areas, the dosage may be adjusted accordingly, ensuring both efficient performance and cost-effectiveness, regardless of fluctuating foam levels in different parts of the facility.
Safe and Stable for Industrial EnvironmentsEngineered for safety, this non-hazardous silicone-based emulsion meets industrial standards for purity and stability. With a neutral pH and low toxicity, it is safe to handle and store, making it a dependable solution for manufacturers seeking both compliance and efficiency in their operational processes.
FAQs of Silicon based Defoamers:
Q: How do I use Silicon Based Defoamer in industrial applications?
A: To use this defoamer, add it directly to areas where foam occurs. The typical dosage is 5 to 7 grams per liter of a 10% solution, but you can increase the dosage at severe foam hotspots and reduce it in less affected zones for optimum results.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using this silicone-based defoamer?
A: Its main advantages include rapid foam reduction, inertness in most industrial environments, adaptability to various processes, and cost-effective performance. It helps to maintain process efficiency by preventing foam-related disruptions.
Q: When should I apply the defoamer during the process?
A: It is best applied when foam starts forming in the process. Identify the stages or areas with persistent foam and add the defoamer accordingly. Regular monitoring will help in adjusting frequency and quantity for best results.
Q: Where should the silicone defoamer be stored?
A: Store the defoamer in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage extends shelf life and preserves its effectiveness for industrial use.
Q: What is the process for optimizing defoamer dosage for different foam problem areas?
A: Begin by identifying sections of your production line with heavy foam formation and dose the product more heavily there. Use lower dosages in other areas. This flexible dosing ensures both technical efficacy and cost savings.
Q: Is the silicone-based defoamer safe to handle and non-hazardous?
A: Yes, it is formulated as a non-hazardous, industrial-grade product. It has a neutral pH (6.08.0) and is safe for use when handled as directed. Always follow standard industrial handling guidelines.
