Type..............................Silicone emulsion
Physical form................Liquid
Special Properties.........Food grade; highly effective in small concentrations; easily dispersed.
Primary use...................Suppressing foam in systems processing nonstandardized foods.

ICM AF 10 FGK Antifoam Emulsion is a water-dilutable silicone material that can be used to
suppress foam in processing nonstandardized foods. It contains 10-percent active silicone
defoamer in a nonionic emulsion, and can be used in quantities up to 50 parts per million on
the basis of "prior sanction" under the Federal Food and Drug Administration regulations.

HOW TO USE:

ICM AF 10 FGK Antifoam Emulsion should always be diluted with water or with a portion of
the foamer before addition to the system.

Concentration:

Although ICM AF 10 FGK Antifoam Emulsion should be diluted before use, concentrations
(ppm) in the foamer are expressed in terms of the product as supplied. Only 5 to 30 parts per
million are normally required. As a starting point for evaluation work, add enough diluted
antifoam to give a concentration of 10 ppm.

Dilution:

First, stir or agitate ICM AF 10 FGK Antifoam Emulsion before removing it from the shipping
container. Then follow these dilution steps:

1. Dilute the required amount of antifoam with 3 volumes of water or foaming medium. Slowly
add the water (or foaming medium), and stir gently until a uniform mixture is obtained.

2. Use the diluted antifoam within eight hours. Longer storage may cause the emulsion to
break and lose antifoam efficiency. If longer storage is necessary, stir the mixture frequently.

3. Add the diluted antifoam to the foaming system. Stir or agitate to insure complete
dispersion and effective foam control.

Amount Needed:

For specific applications, the required amount of ICM AF 10 FGK Antifoam Emulsion can be
determined by starting at 100 PPM concentration and decreasing until performance is as desired.
