Bluestar Silicones introduced a line of SILCOLAPSE® brand foam control additives that provides utility at temperatures and pH levels for a range of food and industrial applications.

The products are domestically produced and are available in a variety of dilutions to meet specific anti-foaming needs. The additives control foam at concentrations as low as 10 ppm solids, even at elevated temperatures, under pressure and are especially effective in alkaline conditions.

SILCOLAPSE 623 and 621 are designed for industrial applications, such as oil and petroleum, textiles, pesticides, pulp and paper, plastics recycling, synthetic rubber processing, wastewater treatment and sea water distillation.
