Proper Usage Method of Antifoam Agents

Proper Usage Method of Antifoam Agents

As a commonly used industrial chemical, antifoaming agent is widely used in chemical industry, food, pharmaceutical industry, coating, paper making and other industries. It can effectively inhibit the production of foam, reduce the impact of foam on the production process, and improve the production efficiency. However, the proper use of antifoaming agents is crucial.

The use method of the antifoam agent

1. Add method: According to the production requirements, select the appropriate addition method, such as direct addition, premixed addition, etc.

2. Add amount: according to the cause of foam and the characteristics of antifoam agent, determine the appropriate add amount. Too much or too little addition will affect the defoaming effect.

3. Add timing: add it in the initial stage of foam production, which can quickly inhibit the production of foam.

4. Adding equipment: Use the appropriate added equipment, such as metering pump, adding tank, etc., to ensure the accuracy of the added amount.

5. Stir: After adding the defoaming agent, stir appropriately to make the defoaming agent evenly dispersed in the foam.

Precautions for the use of antifoam agents

1. Choose the appropriate antifoaming agent: according to the cause of the foam generation and the site environment, choose the appropriate antifoaming agent.

2. Control the amount of addition: too much or too little addition will affect the defoaming effect, which should be adjusted according to the actual situation.

3. Pay attention to the timing of adding: adding in the initial stage of foam production can quickly inhibit the production of foam.

4. Avoid contact with corrosive substances: some components of the defoaming agent may be corrosive, so avoid contact with corrosive substances when using.

5. Strict operation procedures: operate according to the operating procedures to ensure production safety.

6. Storage and transportation: properly preserve and transport defaming agent according to the product specification.

Defoaming agent plays an important role in industrial production. The correct use of defoaming agent can effectively improve production efficiency and ensure production safety. When using the antifoaming agent, we should fully understand its type, use method, matters needing attention, etc., to ensure the antifoaming effect, reduce the production cost, and protect the environment. Here is a summary:

1. Choose the appropriate defoaming agent, according to the cause of the foam generation and the field environment.

2. Control the addition amount to avoid too much or too little.

3. Pay attention to the timing of adding, adding in the early stage of foam generation.

4. Follow the operating procedures to ensure production safety.
