Product Overview
SAG™ 1599 is a cutting-edge foam control agent developed by Momentive Performance Materials Inc., specifically designed for agricultural formulations. This innovative solution excels in managing foam in products containing high concentrations of ammonium sulfate (AMS) or other ionic nutrients, as well as electrolyte-tolerant surfactants like alkylated polyglucosides (APG). Unlike traditional silicone-based antifoams, SAG™ 1599 offers superior foam suppression at significantly
Key Attributes
SAG™ 1599 offers superior foam control at significantly lower concentrations compared to traditional silicone-based antifoams. It prevents separation issues, ensures long-term stability, and remains effective even after dilution to end-use concentrations. Additionally, it complies with stringent EPA regulations, making it safe for use in food-related agricultural applications.
