Silicon-Based Defoamer

Silicon-Based Defoamer is a highly efficient and durable anti-foaming agent formulated with premium-grade polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and other silicone compounds. Known for its superior performance even in low concentrations, this defoamer offers immediate foam knockdown and long-lasting control across a broad spectrum of industrial applications.

Due to its low surface tension and chemical inertness, Silicon-Based Defoamer spreads rapidly across foam surfaces, breaking the surface bubbles and preventing foam regeneration. It remains stable in harsh processing conditions such as high temperatures, high pH, or shear stress, making it an ideal choice for continuous operations.

This defoamer is particularly effective in systems where traditional organic defoamers fail and is compatible with both aqueous and non-aqueous media. It is commonly used in industries such as textiles, pulp & paper, wastewater treatment, fermentation, paints and coatings, adhesives, and oil & gas processing.

Key Features:

  • Rapid and persistent foam suppression
  • Works effectively in both hot and cold systems
  • Stable under high pH, temperature, and shear
  • Economical — effective at low dosage levels
  • Excellent compatibility with a wide range of systems
  • Available in emulsion and non-emulsion (oil-based) forms

Applications:

  • Wastewater treatment plants
  • Pulp and paper industry
  • Paints, inks & coatings manufacturing
  • Fermentation & bioprocessing
  • Detergents and cleaning agents
  • Oil and gas production
