TECHNICAL DATA
TRIDEFOAM AGD
DESCRIPTION:
APPLICATION: (continued)
TRIDEFOAM AGD is a non-silicone defoamer that forms
a very stable emulsion, which has good tolerance
towards electrolytes and variations of pH. TRIDEFOAM
AGD is recommended for all wet processes of textiles
including dyeing and printing. TRIDEFOAM AGD is also
effective in inks, coatings and adhesives based on
synthetic latex polymers.
Paints and coatings will require in general between 3.0
to 5.0 g/l TRIDEFOAM AGD. Split additions with half
the defoamer being added during the grind and the
balance added to the letdown.
Adhesives will require 0.25 to 2.5% TRIDEFOAM AGD
based on the batch weight. TRIDEFOAM AGD may be
added as is or diluted with water prior to addition.
TYPICAL PROPERTIES:
STORAGE:
Appearance :
Clear, yellowish liquid.
Ionic nature :
Non -ionic
Density @ 15°C :
~0.90
Viscosity @ 25°C :
<500 cps

APPLICATION:
TRIDEFOAM AGD may be stored inside or outside if the
container is protected from water. If TRIDEFOAM AGD
should freeze, place in a warm room with a water bath
several days before use. If TRIDEFOAM AGD should
stratify, mix with a mechanical drum agitator.
Do not heat drum with electric heating bands, as this will
cause a loss in product efficiency.
For more information concerning the handling, the
manipulation or the use of this product, please consult
our material safety data sheet or consult our technical
service department.
TRIDEFOAM AGD may be added directly to a foaming
bath. It may be added as received or pre-diluted with up
to 9 parts water. If dilutions should stratify, mix with an
electric drum mixer to restore to 100% efficiency.
For most textile wet processing applications, use levels
are 0.25 to 1.0% owg. TRIDEFOAM AGD should be
prediluted with water in the drug room and dropped to
the dyeing machine or other. Drug room dilutions of 2 to
10 parts water per part of TRIDEFOAM AGD are
preferred.
