SUPERIOR FOAM CONTROL, LOW SURFACE TENSION

As a 100% active silicone polymer modified with fluoro-containing groups, FF160 foam control agent can provide exceptional foam control and long-lasting antifoam effects across a variety of Oil & Gas applications. Use of this foam control agent can help impart foam control at very low treat rates, as well as in situations in which there are few cost-effective alternatives. With resistance to chemicals and oxidation, FF160 foam control agent may be able to be used in extreme temperatures and in environments of high chemical reactivity.

FF160 Foam Control Agent에 대한 자세한 정보

By combining the characteristics of silicone and fluorocarbon chemistries, FF160 foam control agent offers outstanding foam control in a variety of systems, particularly those found with petroleum stocks in high-pressure separators. Conventional antifoams (e.g., those based on polydimethylsiloxanes) are usually soluble and actually may cause foam stabilization rather than foam control. The chemical, petroleum and dry-cleaning industries may benefit from a more potent foam control agent, such as that found in FF160 foam control agent.

The typical benefits of FF160 foam control agent when used in high-pressure (gas-oil) separators include:

Excellent foam control due to their near-zero liquid carry-over and gas carry-under, which can help enable downstream compressors and secondary/tertiary separators to operate optimally
Allowing the use of smaller high-pressure separators while maintaining throughput, which can be particularly useful in space-constrained offshore platform designs
Increasing the productivity of existing equipment without needing to install new machinery, which may reduce overall cost for the end user
Potentially reducing capital costs needed for deep-water drilling and their offshore platforms
Potentially reducing shutdown risk in deep-water offshore platforms where pressure excursions can lead to uncontrolled foaming when conventional antifoams are used
