Abstract
Abstract The antifoam composition provided by the invention comprises (a) 100 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon oil, e.g. spindle oil, or a silicone fluid, e.g. polydimethylsiloxane fluid, having a viscosity of 20 to 1,000,000 centistokes at 25 DEG C., (b) 0.1 to 40 parts by weight of an organosilane compound having 1 to 3 hydroxy groups or hydrolyzable groups, e.g. alkoxy, acyloxy and alkenyloxy groups, (c) 1 to 40 parts by weight of a finely divided silica powder and, optionally, (d) up to 5 parts by weight of a catalyst. The antifoam composition can exhibit excellent and durable defoaming activity even under vigorous agitation or in an alkaline condition of the foaming liquid.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
An antifoam composition which comprises: (a) 100 parts by weight of a hydrophobic base fluid selected from the class consisting of hydrocarbon oils and organopolysiloxane fluid having a viscosity in the range from 20 to 1,000,000 centistokes at 25° C.; (b) from 0.1 to 40 parts by weight of an organosilicon compound represented by the general formula R 1 a Y b Si, in which R 1 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, Y is a monovalent group selected from the class consisting of alkoxy groups, acyloxy groups and alkenyloxy groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and a hydroxy group and the suffixes a and b are each a positive integer of 1, 2 or 3 with the proviso that a+b=4; (c) from 1 to 40 parts by weight of a finely divided silica powder; and (d) up to 5 parts by weight of a catalyst.
