Product code RXSOL-16-2066-210
RXSOL-16-2066-210 is antifoam emulsion and its more concentrated antifoam emulsion. It has excellent candidates for controlling foam in amine and glycol dehydration units. This is suitable products for gas plants and have excellent stability in the presence of salts, resulting in reduced deposits on the plant’s equipment. RXSOL-16-2066-210 help preserves foam control under the severe conditions of a dehydrating unit. These conditions can remove water from other antifoam emulsions, rendering them immediately inactive.
Antifoam Defoamer is a very efficient and stable emulsion designed for a variety of aqueous systems. It may be used as received or dilute for specific applications.
Silicone-free liquid anti foaming agents are typically more effective in water-based and solvent-based systems
Application
This antifoam compound are targeted for gas recovery plants, where natural gas must be washed, or scrubbed, before distribution, and for liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants that must achieve high gas purity before liquefaction.
In many amine units, foam can be problematic. Proper line control without antifoam is, generally, extremely difficult.

Mining
Recycle mills, sulfite mills, and kraft mills all rely on antifoams and defoamers. Foam buildup can lead to slower production rates, low-quality output, increased use of bleaching, inefficient washing, and maintenance problems.
Foam control in aqueous, chemical, oil, and petroleum systems.
• Controls aqueous foamers over a wide range of industrial processes and products; however, it is not intended to be used in food or drug processing.
• Potential uses include:
Gas scrubbing (amine or carbonate)
Gas drying (glycol)
Pesticide manufacture
Dosage
General-purpose antifoams have a wide range of applicability, but not all of them are suitable for use in the treatment of gas. Some foam control agents can aggravate the problem. Foam control in gas scrubbers is only one of the process parameters to be monitored. It is equally important to prevent or slow the fouling of the unit, because dismantling of the gas-scrubbing units is manually intensive. Incorrectly specified antifoams can easily lead to increased fouling and clogging, particularly in the heat exchangers. Momentive Performance Materials RXSOL antifoams are designed to provide foam control with a minimum of such problems.
Antifoam Defoamer is a cost-effective and economical defoamer designed for a wide range of food-grade and food processing applications as well as general industrial applications in paper making, textiles, paints and coatings, and
For Gas Sweetening Systems in Oil and Gas Application
Between 5 and 50 parts of RXSOL Antifoam Emulsion per million parts of foamer are required in most systems. RXSOL Antifoam Emulsion may be prediluted with 3 to 5 parts of water before adding to the foaming system. Add the water to the emulsion, not vice versa. Gentle agitation and preprocess testing are recommended. If a predilution that requires several weeks of stability is desired, it is recommended that softened water is used, and 0.3% Xanthan gum or another thickener is added. During the dilution step, gentle mixing is recommended. Predilutions resulting in concentrations of silicone solids less than 5% are not recommended. If RXSOL Antifoam Emulsion is formulated into other textile emulsions, preprocess testing is recommended.
