Defoamer
A defoamer, also known as an anti-foaming agent, is a chemical additive that reduces and eliminates foam formation in liquids. Foam is formed when gas is trapped in a liquid, and it can cause problems in various industrial processes, such as in the production of food and beverages, pulp and paper, and wastewater treatment. Defoamers work by destabilizing foam bubbles and breaking them apart, allowing the gas to escape from the liquid. They typically contain surfactants or oils that spread over the surface of the liquid to disrupt foam formation. Defoamers are available in various forms, including liquid, powder, and emulsion, and are used in a wide range of industries to improve process efficiency and product quality
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate (SLES Ungero)
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) is an anionic surfactant commonly used in various personal care and cleaning products. It is derived from lauryl alcohol and ethylene oxide, followed by sulfation to produce the final compound. SLES is known for its excellent foaming and cleaning properties, making it a popular ingredient in shampoos, body washes, toothpaste, and household cleaners.
As a surfactant, SLES acts as a detergent and emulsifier, helping to remove dirt, oil, and grease from surfaces. It lowers the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to spread and penetrate more effectively. Additionally, SLES can create a rich and stable foam, enhancing the cleansing experience.
It's worth noting that SLES can be derived from natural or synthetic sources, and its production may involve the use of petroleum-based ingredients. However, formulations can vary among manufacturers, so it's important to check product labels or consult the manufacturer directly for specific information on the origin and processing of SLES.
Trisodium Orthophosphate 500gm
Trisodium phosphateĀ is a chemical compound with the formula Na3PO4. It is a highly soluble, white, crystalline powder that is commonly used as a cleaning agent, food additive, and stain remover. TSP is made by combining sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) with phosphoric acid, and it has a variety of uses in industrial, commercial, and domestic settings due to its alkalinity and ability to emulsify oils and grease. However, TSP can also be toxic if ingested or inhaled, and it is important to handle it with care and follow appropriate safety precautions when using it.
