DOW XIAMETER AFE-1530 is a high-performance silicone defoamer emulsion crafted for harsh industrial settings. It is a milky homogeneous liquid (500-2,000 mPa·s viscosity), maintains stability at pH 2-12 and -10°C to 120°C, and enables fast foam collapse (over 48 hours of suppression) in textile dyeing and wastewater systems. ISO 9001 and REACH certified, it cuts defoamer use by 40% via improved dispersion in high-shear processes.
Heat Resilience: Functions in -10°C to 120°C environments.
Quick-Acting Defoaming: Nano silicone particles lower surface tension to 25.0 dyn/cm within 10 seconds.
Wide pH Suitability: Works effectively in pH 2-12 systems, including caustic pulping baths.
Eco-Friendly Compliance: Contains no APEO and meets EU BPR/FDA standards.
Extended Shelf Life: Maintains stability for 540 days in sealed containers.
Textile Dyeing: Controls foam in 130°C jet dyeing machines, cutting steam consumption by 20%.
Wastewater Treatment: Reduces sludge volume in high-COD effluent (≥8,000 mg/L).
Paper Pulping: Boosts drainage efficiency in kraft pulping (pH 12-13).
Coatings Production: Eliminates fisheye defects in latex paints (0.03-0.3% dosage).
Food Processing: Manages foam in fermentation tanks (compliant with FDA requirements).
