PROGILINE® FI 1030

1 of 22 products in this brand
PROGILINE® FI 1030 is a non-ionic type polyalkylene glycol based foam inhibitor. The product is extremely efficient in both defoaming and antifoaming action in aqueous systems operating over a temperature range of 10-30°C. PROGILINE® FI 1030 is suitable for use in a broad range of cold water applications, either where antifoaming action via reduction of entrained air is required, and/or where defoaming action via control of frothing is needed.

Product Applications

The product may be used in concentrated form or as part of a formulated product. Typical application areas where PROGILINE® FI 1030 is suitable for use include the paper industry and most particularly the vegetable/fruit processing industry. Due to the low dosages required to achieve maximum defoaming/antifoaming efficiency, PROGILINE® FI 1030 is most commonly dosed into suitable points of good mixing via a micro-metering pump.

Technical Details & Test Data

Technical Performance

PROGILINE® FI 1030 defoaming and antifoaming performance is demonstrated by foam testing across the temperature range 10 - 30°C using a standardized reference solution of 0.5wt% sugar / 0.01wt% saponin. Foam control testing demonstrates that a dosage as low as ≈ 3ppm can be efficient in achieving foam height reduction >97% with ongoing foam inhibition for the duration of the Foam Inhibitor’s presence in the water. It is demonstrated that a dosage of 25ppm Foam Inhibitor can be efficient in ensuring a complete absence of foam formation.

PROGILINE® FI 1030 defoaming and antifoaming performance is also demonstrated by foam testing across the temperature range 10 - 30°C using a standardized reference solution of 50g unwashed potatoes (1cm3 piece size) / 150ml deionized water. The solution is allowed to “soak” for 4 hours prior to conducting the foam test. Again, the foam control testing demonstrates that a dosage as low as ≈ 3ppm can be efficient in achieving foam height reduction >90% with ongoing foam inhibition for the duration of the Foam Inhibitor’s presence in the water. It is demonstrated that a dosage of 25ppm Foam Inhibitor can be efficient in ensuring a complete absence of foam formation in this media.
