AFV-3225D Fatty Alcohol Defoamer

AFP-3230 is a high-carbon fatty alcohol defoamer characterized by rapid diffusion, low surface tension, and strong instantaneous defoaming power. In the papermaking process, it effectively controls foam in the white water system, reduces paper breaks, improves dewatering performance, and enhances paper surface quality.

It is particularly suitable for papermaking systems requiring low adhesion, easy dispersibility, and no silicone residue issues.

Product Description


This fatty alcohol defoamer is used to eliminate and suppress foam in the wet-end white water of the papermaking process. Lt exhibits excellent degassing properties, effectively removing fine bubbles from the fiber surface and improving paper quality. It is suitable for papermaking systems where the wet-end white water temperature exceeds 50 °C.

FAQ


How to use fatty alcohol defoamer in papermaking


Add method


Direct addition: Fatty alcohol defoamer can be directly added to the papermaking system in the form of a stock solution, and is suitable for areas where foam generation is more concentrated.

Add after dilution: You can also dilute it 1-3 times with clean water first, and then add it dropwise to the pulp tank, high-level box, mesh tank, and other foam-generating areas. The diluted defoamer should be used as soon as possible to ensure its effect.


Add Location


Pulping section: In pulping mills, defoamers are generally added in bleaching and washing sections, such as pulp washers, thickener,and pulp tanks.

Papermaking section: During the papermaking process, defoamers are usually added to the paper machine headbox, pulp pool, coating, and size press.

White water system: Continuously adding water to the white water pool or external white water tank can effectively control the system foam.


Addition amount


Depending on the different papermaking systems, the amount of fatty alcohol defoamer is generally 0.01%-0.2% of the foaming system.

In practical applications, the dosage is usually 50-1000g/ton of paper. The specific dosage needs to be adjusted according to factors such as paper type, use of papermaking additives, production speed, and slurry air content.


Usage Tips


Multi-point addition: Adding different types of defoamers at distant locations is more economical and effective than using a high concentration of one defoamer. For example, one defoamer can be added before the beater and another at the headbox.

Small test verification: It is recommended to conduct a small test before use to avoid abnormal situations.
