Defoamer W-1
Silicone Emulsion Defoamer
|
Description: Defoamer W-1 is a
highly water-dispersible silicone formulation designed for general purpose defoaming. It
will prevent foam in degassers, coil tubing units and other equipment where there are foam
problems. The low ppm range in which Defoamer W-1 is effective makes it an economical
treatment. The defoaming ability of Defoamer W-1 may improve the quality and quantity of
production by eliminating foam and foam carry-over and improving the efficiency of
treating equipment.

Advantages:
- This silicone emulsion defoamer is effective at very low concentrations.
- Safe to use in degassers, coil tubing units, production vessels and other
equipment where fluid foaming may be a problem.
|
Application: Because each use application varies,
it is suggested that several hundred ppm of the defoamer be used initially, with a gradual
lowering of the treating rate as determined by operating conditions. |
Handling: Improper
handling of this product can be injurious to workers. Observe all
safety precautions shown on the label and in the Material Safety Data
Sheet.
