1 of 18 products in this brand
PULPSIL® 814 E is a medium-viscosity, low-concentrated, highly effective silicone antifoam emulsion, specifically developed for use in pulp mills. It acts primarily as an antifoam agent and drainage aid and can be added at various stages during the manufacturing process. PULPSIL® 814 E is characterized by its excellent long-term efficiency and knock-down efficiency, particularly in aggressive black liquors. It offers high performance even at low dosages.

Application Details
  • PULPSIL® 814 E acts primarily as an antifoam agent and drainage aid and may be added at various stages during the manufacturing process. PULPSIL® 814 E is mainly applied to pulp-washing and screening processes, but is also effective during bleaching and in waste water treatment. In general we recommend to stir the emulsion before use (aprrox. 3 minutes with a propeller stirrer at 200 – 400 rpm). But be cautious: too high shear can break the emulsion.
  • The emulsion should be added undiluted, as it is already sufficiently dispersed by its emulsion form. If a pre-dilution still should be necessary, we recommend dilutions with cold water in proportions of 3 parts emulsion : 1 part of water to max. 1 part emulsion : 1 part of water. Sufficient quality of this pre-dilution should be checked by previous trials in laboratory scale.
  • For manufacture oft he pre-dilution add first the emulsion and the add the water unter weak stirring. The ready-made dilution hast tob e agitated 2 to 3 times a day for 15 to 20 min by weak stirring and should be processed within few days.
