TEGO® Sulpho 1

TEGO® Sulpho 1 is liquid, non-ionic polyether modified polysiloxane.

Typical Applications

TEGO® Sulpho 1 is used as a shaping and release agent on a steel belt during the sulphur pastillezing process. It is water soluble and therefore easy dilutable.

Benefits at a glance

TEGO® Sulpho 1 enables improved workers safety and easier handling. It is expected to reduce the sulphur dust level by approx. 50%. This reduction is mainly achieved due to improvement and consistency in pellet shape and better separation from the conveyor belt.
Compared to silicone oil emulsions aqueous solutions of TEGO® Sulpho 1 are superior due to
  • Better release properties
  • Improved long term stability
  • Enhanced stability under hot and cold conditions (no separation) easier cleaning of the conveyor belt

The pure aqueous dilution of TEGO® Sulpho 1 is non-foaming and shear stable. TEGO® Sulpho 1 enables a long-term continuous operation of the steel belt, thus decreasing operating and maintenance costs.
