Typical Applications
TEGOPREN® 5831 is particularly suitable as a defoamer for lubricating oils and neat metalworking fluids that are based on ester oils or on blends of mineral oils with ester oils as well as on polyalkylene glycols.
Furthermore, TEGOPREN® 5831 can be used as a wetting agent for neat oils and for emulsifiable metalworking fluids.
In addition, TEGOPREN® 5831 can be applied to improve water separation characteristics of non-aqueous media based on mineral or ester oils.

Benefits at a glance
TEGOPREN® 5831 combines the high compatibility of organic antifoams with the high defoaming efficiency of pure silicone oil antifoams.
TEGOPREN® 5831 provides the same defoaming efficiency at a much higher deaeration rate of the base fluid compared to pure silicone oils.
Due to its unique chemistry, TEGOPREN® 5831 outperforms organic defoamers such as polyacrylates by
As a multifunctional additive TEGOPREN® 5831 is able to enhance wetting properties of both non-water miscible and water miscible (emulsifiable) metalworking fluids that are based on mineral oil.
TEGOPREN® 5831 can improve water separation capacity of neat metalworking fluids and lubricating oils to avoid corrosion, cavitation, premature lubricant degradation etc.
In contrast to pure silicone oils, TEGOPREN® 5831 has no adverse effect on finishing processes (painting, electroplating etc.) of treated metal parts when used in metalworking fluids.
Compared to conventional siloxane-based additives TEGOPREN® 5831 allows for a strongly reduced treat rate due to its exceptional efficiency.
