Defoamer King FAG470 is a non-ionic high-efficiency emulsion defoamer based on polyether-modified polysiloxane technology. With the dual effects of rapid foam breaking and long-lasting foam suppression, it is widely used in seven major industrial fields: water treatment, coatings, textiles, cleaning, metalworking, petrochemicals, and papermaking.

Product Overview

Defoamer King FAG470 (also known as FAG-470, silicone defoamer, polyether-modified silicone defoamer, Defoamer FAG470) is a non-ionic defoamer produced by Haian Guoli Chemical Co., Ltd., with the chemical composition of polyether-modified polysiloxane. The product is supplied in an easy-to-use aqueous emulsion form, appearing milky white, and can be instantly dispersed in water, making it an ideal choice for controlling foam problems in industrial processes. Its unique molecular structure design enables it to exhibit rapid foam breaking and long-lasting foam suppression in various complex systems.

The core advantages of the product include: achieving efficient defoaming and long-term foam inhibition with extremely low dosage; stable chemical structure under harsh conditions such as high temperature and strong alkalinity, not prone to demulsification or failure; non-ionic formulation makes it easily dispersible in water and has good compatibility with other additives in the system, unlikely to cause adverse reactions or turbidity.

Main Uses

With its excellent comprehensive performance, Defoamer King FAG470 is mainly used in the following seven industrial fields (data source: Guoli Chemical Product Database):

  • Water Treatment: In aeration tanks, sedimentation tanks, and concentration tanks of municipal sewage and industrial wastewater treatment systems, quickly remove biological foam and surfactant foam to ensure process stability and effluent quality.
  • Coatings and Ink Manufacturing: Inhibit microbubbles and large bubbles during high-speed dispersion, grinding, and filling processes, preventing defects such as pinholes and craters in the coating film, improving product appearance and adhesion.
  • Textile Printing and Dyeing: Eliminate large amounts of foam generated by auxiliaries and mechanical shear during desizing, scouring, bleaching, dyeing, and printing processes under hot and humid conditions, avoiding uneven dyeing issues and operational failures, especially suitable for high-temperature alkaline bath environments.
  • Industrial Cleaning: Control foam height in high-pressure spray cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, and CIP online cleaning systems to ensure cleaning fluid circulation efficiency and equipment operation safety, while not affecting cleaning power.
  • Metalworking Fluids: Control foam caused by high-pressure spraying and circulation stirring in cutting fluids, grinding fluids, and hydraulic fluids during circulation, maintaining lubrication and cooling performance and preventing liquid tank overflow.
  • Petrochemical Processes: Eliminate foam in organic and aqueous media during oil-gas separation, amine desulfurization, glycol dehydration, and various reactors and distillation towers to improve separation efficiency and product purity.
  • Pulp and Papermaking: Remove foam generated by lignin, sizing agents, and wet strength agents during pulp washing, bleaching, wet-end papermaking, and coating processes to prevent defects such as holes and spots on the paper surface.

Application Recommendations

Before use, gently stir the product to ensure uniformity. It can be added directly or diluted with several times of water before adding to the foaming system. It is recommended to add continuously via a metering pump to the foam generation area for optimal defoaming and foam inhibition effects. The specific dosage should be determined through small-scale tests based on actual working conditions and foam levels. Usually, a very low dosage can achieve the desired effect. The product should be stored at a temperature between 5°C and 40°C, avoiding freezing or prolonged high temperatures to maintain stability.

Precautions

This product is not classified as a hazardous chemical according to GHS standards; it is non-flammable, non-oxidizing, and has no known acute toxicity or irritation. However, it is still recommended to wear personal protective equipment such as protective gloves and safety glasses during operation to avoid prolonged skin contact and eye contact. If accidentally splashed into the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention promptly. After opening, use as soon as possible. Keep the container sealed during storage, away from strong oxidizers, strong acids, strong bases, and other incompatible substances.
