摘要:
Emulsifier-free antifoams are obtainable by mixing a) from 80 to 99% by weight of at least one finely divided, virtually water-insoluble, inert solid with b) from 1 to 20% by weight of at least one hydrophobic, organic compound which has an antifoam action and is solid at room temperature in the absence of a solvent in a shear gradient such that the particle size of the compounds (b) which have an antifoam action is reduced to a mean particle size of from 0.5 to 15 μm, emulsifier-free oil-in-water dispersions of mixtures of (a) and (b) are prepared by mixing the component (a) in an amount of from 80 to 99% by weight with the compounds of component (b) in an amount of from 1 to 20% by weight in the absence of emulsifiers in an extruder or kneader in a manner such that the mean particle size of the component (b) in the mixture is brought to 0.5 to 15 μm, at up to 100° C., and emulsifying the mixture in water, and the oil-in-water dispersions thus obtainable are used as antifoams and/or deaerators for aqueous, disperse or nondisperse liquids, in particular as antifoams and/or deaerators in the paper industry, in the food industry and in wastewater treatment plants.
摘要:
Antifoams and/or deaerators based on oil-in-water dispersions, whose oil phase contains at least one compound from the group consisting of the alcohols of at least 12 carbon atoms, alkoxylated fatty alcohols, mono-, di- and triglycerides of fatty acids, fatty acid esters of carboxylic acids of at least 12 carbon atoms and monohydric to tetrahydric alcohols of 1 to 24 carbon atoms, hydrocarbons having a boiling point above 200° C., fatty acids of 12 to 26 carbon atoms, 3-thiaalkan-1-ols, 3-thiaoxoalkan-1-ols, 3-thiadioxoalkanols and esters of thiaalkane compounds in combination with (i) at least one polyglyceryl ester which is obtainable by at least 20% esterification of polyglycerol with a carboxylic acid of 12 to 36 carbon atoms and (ii) at least one bisamide of ethylenediamine and carboxylic acids of 10 to 36 carbon atoms and whose aqueous phase contains at least one stabilizer, water and, if required, a thickener, for aqueous media which tend to form foam, are used for foam control of aqueous media which tend to form foam, in particular for foam control in pulp cooking, pulp washing, the beating of paper stock, papermaking and the dispersing of pigments for papermaking.
