Silicone Antifoams
Silicone Antifoams
Silicone Antifoam Technologies consist of chemically engineered solutions to alter surface tension and destabilize foam matrices under rigorous processing conditions.
Because a single defoamer cannot fit every chemical environment, our range is segmented into four high-performance delivery platforms designed to survive extreme pH, high shear, and elevated temperature conditions:
-
Antifoam Emulsions: Highly stable, water-dispersible systems optimized for immediate knock-down in aqueous formulations and waste-water streams.
-
Antifoam Compounds: 100% active silica-filled silicone polymers offering robust chemical inertness and long-term durability in heavy industrial mediums.
-
Solvent-Based Solutions: Formulated for seamless solubility and rapid air release in non-aqueous environments, lubricants, and oil-phase systems.
-
Polyether Fluid Solutions: Hybrid organo-modified silicones that leverage cloud-point technology to offer self-emulsifying, non-spotting foam control in demanding chemical synthesis and textile processing.
