SILFOAM® SD 882 exhibits excellent defoaming and degassing properties in:

  • Manufacturing of dispersions
  • Rendering dispersions and latices low foaming
  • Defoaming textile auxiliaries
  • Defoaming paints and varnishes
  • Defoaming cooling lubricants
  • Rendering adhesives low foaming
Application Details

Processing

  • The exact amount to be added must be determinded in preliminary tests. We recommend starting with amounts between 0.1% and 0.5%.
  • Generally, the product should be added as it is, as its self-dispersing properties will usually ensure an adequate and homogeneous distribution.
  • If SILFOAM® SD 882 is diluted with water, the resultant dispersion must be used quickly.
