Product dosage and locations will vary with individual applications. Generally, IneaSil FB 50 should be added prior to foaming situations but avoiding high shear after the addition point if possible. IneaSil FB 50 is acceptable for 21 CFR 176.210 and BfR XXXVI applications.
IneaSil FB 50 is particularly suited for use in Textile auxiliaries and processes such as bleaching and scouring, beck, jet or package dying operations, and finishing formulations.
IneaSil FB 50 can be added neat, or as a lower solids dilutions. For dilution requiring longer term storage proper back thickening to a minimum final viscosity of 500 cps is recommended.
