Anti-foaming Agents or defoamers are additives that are used to prevent or limit the formation of foams and useful in applications where the oil may be exposed to contaminants or over aeration during normal operation which can result in foam formation.
| Product | Description | Benefits | Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| Liofoam® 148 | Liofoam® 148 is an antifoam. | Anti-foaming agent based on mineral oil, emulsifiers and amides indicated for soluble cutting oil formulations. In addition to total efficiency of foam breakdown and excessive formation. Exceptional resistance to pH variations of the emulsion. | Formulation of emulsifier packages for soluble oils based on a blend of surfactants and hydrophobic particles in mineral oil. |
| OLOA® 4900C | OLOA® 4900C is a Ashless, zinc free, multifunctional additive. | Prevents or minimises wear in circumstances where the lubricant film thickness has degraded such as decrease in viscosity (e.g. due to temperature increase), reduction in speed and increase in bearing load. Reduces foam formation in lubricants, which can impair lubrication and cooling in hydraulic systems. | For hydraulic, gears and slideways applications. |
| Viscoplex® 14-520 | Viscoplex® 14-520 is a Anti-foam Additive. | VISCOPLEX® 14-520 is a soluble type of anti-foam for oil based lubricants . Particularly good in maintaining demulsion performance over extended time and for having minimal impact on air release nd other properties. Maximum dosage 400ppm. | Often employed as a ‘problem solver’ where conventional anti-foam additives have failed |
Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
