Specialty Chemicals — Gas Treatment
About the Principal
Momentive Performance Materials is one of the world’s largest producers of silicones and silicone derivatives, with over 60 years of materials innovation and manufacturing facilities across multiple continents.
For the energy sector, Momentive’s SAG™ silicone antifoam range is engineered specifically for gas treatment — controlling foam in amine units and glycol dehydration systems where general-purpose antifoams fail, foul heat exchangers, or lose activity under severe operating conditions.
Through this partnership, 3A Global supplies Momentive SAG™ antifoam emulsions to gas recovery and LNG plants across Sarawak, Labuan and Brunei.
Product Range
Silicone antifoam emulsion with 10% active ingredients for foam control in amine and glycol dehydration units. Rapid knockdown, excellent stability in the presence of salts and high temperatures.
The concentrated version at 20% active ingredients — for plants requiring higher-strength dosing with the same stability and dispersibility profile.

Key Benefits
Fast control when foam suddenly builds up in the absorber and rapid response is needed.
Remains effective under the severe conditions of amine and glycol dehydration units.
Stays finely dispersed instead of depositing on heat exchangers — reducing service maintenance.
Effective foam control at low dosing concentrations compared to typical gas-treating antifoams.
