DOW XIAMETER AFE-1430 is a 30% active silicone defoamer emulsion developed for harsh industrial environments. It presents as a white flowable liquid (viscosity 10,000 cSt) and maintains stable performance under pH 1-14 and ≤80°C conditions, breaking down micron-level foam within 5 minutes (with foam suppression lasting over 12 hours). Certified by ISO 9001 and REACH, its optimized dispersion efficiency reduces mineral oil defoamer consumption by 40% in gas scrubbing and agrochemical manufacturing processes.
High Thermal Stability: Features a closed-cup flash point of >101.1°C, making it safe for use in high-temperature industrial workflows (e.g., heated gas scrubbing systems or agrochemical formulation processes) without compromising stability or efficacy.
Eco-Friendly Compliance: Free of APEO (Alkylphenol Ethoxylates) and compliant with RoHS standards, it meets strict environmental regulations. This makes it suitable for industries prioritizing sustainable and low-toxicity process additives.
Reliable Dilution Stability: Pre-diluted solutions (1:9 ratio with water) remain homogeneous for up to 7 days. This ensures consistent performance over time, reduces on-site preparation frequency, and minimizes waste from unstable diluted batches.
Gas Treatment: Controls foam in amine/carbonate systems (critical for natural gas or industrial gas purification), preventing foam-induced pressure drops or reduced scrubbing efficiency. Recommended dosage: 0.005%-0.03%.
Water Processing: Suppresses foam in high-COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) effluents, reducing membrane clogging in filtration systems. This extends the lifespan of wastewater treatment membranes and lowers maintenance and replacement costs.
Industrial Cleaning: Reduces foam in alkaline degreasers (suitable for pH 10-12 systems), enhancing the penetration of cleaning agents and improving the removal of heavy grease from industrial equipment (e.g., machinery parts, manufacturing tools).
