Key features

  • Low surface tension:Quickly breaks foam by disrupting bubble stability, making it highly effective even in small amounts.


  • Long-lasting foam inhibition:Maintains defoaming performance over extended periods, reducing the need for repeated dosing.


  • Heat and chemical resistance:Performs reliably under high temperatures and strong alkaline conditions, ideal for industrial cleaning and pulp processing.


  • Excellent internal addition stability:Remains stable when blended into formulations like coatings, inks, or cutting fluids, without separating or degrading.


  • Fast-acting and persistent:Offers both immediate defoaming and sustained suppression, suitable for high-foam systems and continuous operations.


Application
  • Paints Industry – Acts as a flow and leveling agent to improve surface smoothness, gloss, and anti-cratering in solvent-based and waterborne paint formulations.


  • Coatings Industry – Enhances surface slip, mar resistance, and substrate wetting in industrial and architectural coatings.


  • Inks Industry – Improves printability, pigment dispersion, and anti-blocking properties in solvent-based and UV-curable ink systems.


  • Printing Industry – Provides better transfer, reduced misting, and improved surface appearance in high-speed printing applications.
