Indigo Foam AID Foam Suppressant 1L. Diethylpolysiloxane
Foam Suppressant
When multiple chemical formulations are combined with good agitation and rapid tank filling, it is not unusual to have excessive foaming occur in the spray tank. Excessive foaming can significantly slow the filling operation, and become very frustrating. It is also important to control foaming without causing incompatibility in the tank. Foam AID is a special purpose foam suppressant for use in agricultural sprayers to assist with foam issues.
Key Features:
- Foam AID is an advanced formula for prevention and suppression of troublesome foam in spray tanks.
- Controlling foam reduces filling time and lessens overflow waste.
- Saves valuable time so spray application can commence.
- Is available in an easy to handle 1L pack size.
