Performance Chemicals

Silicone based Defoamer causes existing foam to breakdown, unlike antifoams which prevent its formation. On application, the foam is stabilized by surface elasticity and surface viscosity, making it difficult to break. Silicones have low surface tension enabling them to flow easily over the film seeking out openings between the foam stabilizers (surfactants). The product's low surface tension and interfacial properties combined with their lack of foam-stabilization properties cause the foam wall to thin and collapse.

Benefits of Silicone based Defoamer:

• Lower surface tension
• Insoluble
• React less with processed ingredients
• Stable and active for a longer period
• Cost effective

Application Areas of Silicone based Defoamer include:

• Chemical industries
• Textile processing
• Food production and processing
• Household 
• Pulp and paper industry
• Paints and coatings
• Pharmaceuticals and healthcare

An agglomerating polymer based water suspension agent, specially formulated to enhance water penetration and water retention on surfaces, incorporated in such a way that it binds surface particles together into larger particles, manifesting a two-fold benefit. On application, the formulation gets adsorbed into the application surface, resulting in formation of a binding effect from intermolecular forces between the polymer and the surface. This binding force forms a cohesive bond. This agglomerating polymer has its own uniqueness, owing to the presence of different polar groups and aromatic compounds, increasing the molecule binding capacities, and making it flexible for a wide range of surface.
