Product description: TEGO® Antifoam 2460 is an APEO-free organic antifoam concentrate based on mineral oil. Application: TEGO® Antifoam 2460 is designed for the use as process aid in the water-based polymerization of SBR/ NBR rubber materials. However, for the defoaming of SBR emulsions as used in adhesives and paper coatings, we rather recommend to use the specialized defoamers TEGO® Antifoam 2290 and 2291. Properties / Benefits: Unlike conventional defoamers, TEGO® Antifoam 2460 was specifically developed to avoid premature coagulation. This allows for less cleaning of the reaction vessel and the demonomerization column while the TEGO® Antifoam 2460 does not hinder the coagulation stage. Test with the customer specific emulsions are recommended. Information provided by Evonik |
