| Description: SILCOLAPSE® 458 is a concentrated aqueous emulsion containing polydimethylsiloxane and is highly effective for prevention, control and elimination of foam in aqueous media. SILCOLAPSE® 458 can be easily transformed into diluted silicone emulsions with low active material concentrations and high level of stability. This versatile antifoam has many applications in industry due to high knock-down effect and long durability. Applications: SILCOLAPSE® 458 and its dilutions are particularly suitable for use in industrial processes requiring the elimination or control of foam within a wide range of pH, such as: - Gas and petrol extraction processes,
- Chemistry: extraction, distillation and dehydration processes,
- Water treatment, effluent treatment,
- Textile industry: dyeing, washing.
- Paper industry: pulp washing.
Features: - Easy to dilute.
- High stability of diluted emulsion, even at low concentration.
- Easy transportation due to high concentration.
- Very high foam control efficiency.
- Economical in use.
- Good behavior in a large range of pH.
- Chemically inert with regards to the system to be defoamed.
