Versatile Silicone Antifoam Compound
LK-AF 514
Introduction:
LK-AF 514 is a modified silicone-based antifoam compound designed to deliver quick and effective foam control across a wide range of industrial applications. It offers high efficiency even at low dosages and can be used in both aqueous and non-aqueous systems.
This product exhibits extremely fast foam knockdown and effectively prevents foam regeneration.
Its rapid action and ability to inhibit foam reformation make it suitable for demanding environments such as effluent treatment, paints, distilleries, resin manufacturing, and more.
Key features
- Extremely fast foam knockdown.
- Delays foam regeneration for lasting effect.
- Easy to use and handle – no strong acid/base.
- Effective across a wide pH and temperature range.
- Chemically inert – leaves no residue.
- Easily emulsifiable in aqueous systems.
- Broad application compatibility.
- Work effectively at lower dosage (0.001-1.0%).
