Yes, this defoamer acts both as a defoaming agent that eliminates existing foam and as an anti-foaming agent that prevents new foam from forming.
The DEFOAMER is offered in multiple packaging formats including 50 KG HDPE narrow-mouth drums, 220 KG HDPE small-mouth barrels, 1000 KG IBC containers, and 25 MT tankers for large-scale operations.
The product has low viscosity and surface active properties designed to maintain process efficiency while effectively controlling foam without adversely affecting the liquid characteristics.
DESCRIPTION
A defoamer or an anti-foaming agent is a chemical additive that reduces and hinders the formation of foam in industrial process liquids. The terms anti-foam agent and defoamer are often used interchangeably. Strictly speaking, defoamers eliminate existing foam and anti-foamers prevent the formation of further foam. Commonly used agents are insoluble oils, polydimethylsiloxanes and other silicones, certain alcohols, stearates and glycols. The additive is used to prevent formation of foam or is added to break foam already formed.
In industrial processes, foams pose serious problems. They cause defects on surface coatings and prevent the efficient filling of containers. A variety of chemical formulae are available to prevent formation of foams.
