- Application Details
- By virtue of its chemical structure, SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 is capable of regulating surfactant-based formulations, in particular liquid detergents. Insufficient alkali resistance or rapid loss of effect are significantly reduced. Its principal areas of application are in non-structured liquid detergents and cleaners.
- When introduced into dispersions SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 shows relatively good compatibility with the polymer film and high efficiency during storage, especially at higher temperatures.
- Typical applications of SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 are all kinds of dispersions, especially for the construction industry, masonry paints and adhesives.
Processing- SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 is usually added undiluted to the foaming formulation in amounts of 0.2 - 1.0% at the end of the product formulation stage.
- SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 usually disperses without the need for high shearing forces and is stirred in gently.
- We recommend conducting compatibility tests before the antifoam agent is incorporated into a liquid formulation or dispersion.
- Approx. 0.5 % SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 is gently stirred into a small amount of the foaming medium. If the mixture is stable,SILFOAMĀ® SD 168 can be subjected to further application tests.
