OVERVIEW

EtnaFoam OB-N 300 is a 100% active, non-silicone anti-foaming agent that is applicable to textile and associated processing. EtnaFoam OB-N 300 was designed as an economical replacement where the use of silicone anti-foaming agents is objectionable. The product contains twice the active amount of EBSA and can typically be used at half the level to reduce oil content in the bath.The selection and proper balance of emulsifiers provides stability of this product over the entire temperature range normally employed in the dyeing of both natural and synthetic fibers. The addition of 1/8 - 1/4% based upon the weight of goods, is generally sufficient to eliminate troublesome foam. As in all anti-foaming agents, care should be taken to avoid excessive levels to eliminate possible dyeing problems.
