    Product Applications and Usage
    • Suggested applications include: meat and poultry processing, fruits and juices, pickles, rice processing, potato washing, soft drinks, instant coffee, and other food processes or products requiring an effective foam control agent.
    • Typical industrial applications include: agricultural formulations, chemical processing, pulp and paper, detergents and textiles.
    • Antifoam 8810 FG can be used as received or pre-diluted with water or other process liquids before use. Concentrations from 10 to 200 ppm are sufficient for foam control in most systems. In testing, to determine the most effective working concentrations, a good starting point is to add 25 parts of antifoam per million parts foamer. In direct-food applications, adjust concentration to comply with FDA regulations as explained under regulatory status.
    Directions of Use

    This product is readily dispersible in warm or cold water with gentle agitation. For best results, mix one part of antifoam with 2-12 parts sterilized water or other diluent and stir gently until completely mixed. If it is necessary to store the diluted material, continuous, mild agitation is recommended to ensure uniform product

    Storage & Handling

    Storage Information and Shelf Life

    This product exhibits excellent storage stability when proper handling procedures are followed. As with most emulsions, storage in a cool dry place (60-75°F) in tightly-closed containers will provide maximum shelf life. Under these conditions, shelf life is 12 months minimum. Product should be protected from freezing. Repeated freezing may damage container and may cause thickening or separation of emulsion. If freezing occurs, allow to thaw, mix thoroughly and use the emulsion as usual.
