Applications & Uses

Applications
  • Antifoams for Agrochemicals
  • SILFOAM® SE 3060 shows a very good foam control performance in plant protection formulations (e.g. in surfactant rich agrochemical formulations).
  • SILFOAM® SE 3060 complies with US FIFRA regulations 40 CFR § 180.920 and can be applied for pre-harvest pesticide formulations.

Processing

In general we recommend to stir the emulsion before use (approx. 3 minutes with a propeller stirrer at 200 – 400 rpm). But be cautious: too high shear can break the emulsion.
