Product description: SILFOAM® SRE, which contains 20% active ingredient and 33% solids, is a versatile antifoam that is comparatively rich in emulsifier but is nonetheless easily metered because it has a relatively low viscosity. Since SILFOAM® SRE also possesses high resistance to alkalis and acids, it may further be used in a wide range of applications in which pH is critical. Application: SILFOAM® SRE has proved ideal for tackling foam in textile auxiliaries and processes, for incorporation into cooling lubricants based on mineral oils, for separation of monomers from dispersions and conversion of dispersion into derivatives. SILFOAM® SRE is a useful auxiliary for combating foam generated in surfactant containing formulations employed in the most diverse areas, such as the agrochemicals (plant protection agents), cleaners and petrochemicals industries. SILFOAM® SRE is also an efficient defoamer for treating waste water. Information provided by Wacker Chemie AG. |
