Application Details
  • For high efficiency it is necessary that PULPSIL® 266 C be well dispersed in the foaming medium. Therefore PULPSIL® 266 C can be added only in neat form if high amounts of surfactants and/or high shear forces ensure a good dispersion. Preferably PULPSIL® 266 C should be added in emulsion form.
  • The use as a booster to organic defoamers is also possible, but sufficient compatibility of PULPSIL® 266 C with the organic system has to be guaranteed.
  • When used in a suitable formulation like an emulsion, PULPSIL® 266 C is an excellent antifoam agent, especially recommended for the use in different pulp processing steps like washing, screening, bleaching and waste water treatment.
