TEGO® Antifoam KS 95 is a self-emulsifying organic antifoam concentrate, containing small amounts of organo-siloxanes for enhancing the efficiency.
Typical Applications
TEGO® Antifoam KS 95 destroys foam or prevents foam formation reliably in aqueous media and may be used for foam control in a variety of industrial applications
- As a processing aid for the water based polymerization of thermoplastics and elastomers (e.g. in the demonomerization)
- In the stripping of PVC latex in emulsion, suspension and micro-suspension polymerization
- In the processing and application of polymer dispersions/latices
- As an environmental-friendly antifoam for waste water treatment
- In a multitude of other industrial applications (TEGO® Antifoam KS 95 should not be used in strong alkaline media, i. e. pH > 10)
Benefits at a glance
- Due to the special selection of active ingredients TEGO® Antifoam KS 95 outperforms conventional organic antifoams in many respects (dispersibility, efficiency)
- Furthermore undesirable effects associated with other organic antifoams can be reduced or even eliminated (e.g. fogging of PVC)
