Features Of DOW XIAMETER OFX-8800 Fluid

  1. Highly effective silicone-based defoamer with excellent knock-down and long-term foam suppression.

  2. Low surface tension and superior spreading characteristics for rapid surface coverage in aqueous systems.

  3. Thermally stable up to 200 °C, maintaining performance under elevated processing temperatures.

  4. Compatible with a broad range of anionic, nonionic, and cationic surfactants and formulations.

  5. Readily dispersible in water without requiring high-shear mixing or pre-dilution.

Typical Applications Of DOW XIAMETER OFX-8800 Fluid

  1. Paints and coatings — particularly in architectural, industrial, and waterborne coating manufacturing.

  2. Adhesives and sealants — for foam control during mixing, application, and curing processes.

  3. Textile auxiliaries — including dyeing, printing, and finishing baths where persistent foam interferes with uniform treatment.

  4. Agrochemical formulations — such as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides requiring stable emulsions and minimal foaming.

  5. Construction chemicals — including concrete admixtures, grouts, and tile adhesives.
