Industrial Additives Functions: Anti-Foaming Agent
Technologies: Industrial Additives & Materials
Product Families: Industrial Additives & Materials — Processing Aids
Polymerization Additives
Industrial Additives & Materials — Water Treatment Chemicals
Water Treatment Additives

Features & Benefits

Labeling Claims: APEO-Free
Industrial Additives Features: Wide pH Range
Benefits: TEGO® Antifoam KE 600 outperforms conventional organic antifoams in many respects, in particular regarding dispersibility and dilution stability. Furthermore undesirable effects associated with other organic or silicone antifoams (e. g. fogging of PVC, surface defects of coated and uncoated paper) can be very much reduced or even eliminated.

Applications & Uses

Markets: Industrial
Applications: Industrial — Paper & Pulp
Coated Paper & Paperboard
Industrial — Power, Water & Utilities
Water Treatment
Applicable Processes: Polymerization,
Suspension Polymerization,
Wastewater Treatment
Industrial Additives End Use: Paperboard
Application: TEGO® Antifoam KE 600 destroys foam or prevents foam formation reliably in aqueous media and may therefore be used in a variety of industrial applications:

in emulsion, suspension and micro suspension polymerization of PVC throughout all process steps, especially for S-PVC production.

in the production of paper and paperboard.

in process and waste water applications.

in a multitude of other industrial applications especially if high pH stability is requested.
