Product Highlights

Foam  control

Silicone  polymers  are  a  perfect  product  class  for  managing  foam  of  products  with  high  surfactant  content. Special  the modified silicones  are  suitable for  challenging formulations  because  they  are  suitable  even  for transparent  or  clear  formulations.  The products  can be  used  as  process  aid during manufacturing agro chemicals  or  can  be  formulated as  an  antifoam  for  the  final  application.   

Key Features
  • High polarity.
  • Excellent compatible with surfactant mixtures.

Applications & Uses

Key Applications
  • Agricultural adjuvant
  • Antifoam
Applications

HANSA AC 1085 can be used as an ingredient for formulating antifoams/defoamers for agriculture formulations e.g. pestizeds, fertilizers etc.. Alternatively the product is suitable as processing additive to control foaming during production or filling process. It can be added directly into surfactantbased formulations. Alternatively, HANSA AC 1085 can be transferred into water based formulations supported by common solubilizers or solvents. General dosage is 0.1-1.0%.
