A defoamer, or anti-foaming agent, is a chemical additive that prevents the formation or breaks down existing foam in a liquid system by destabilizing the air bubbles that form the foam. These substances are crucial in many industries, including food processing, pulp and paper manufacturing, paint production, and wastewater treatment, where foam can impede production, reduce product quality, and cause operational disruptions. These are a class of chemical additives that suppress and eliminate foam formation. They function by disrupting the structural stability of bubble membranes and are widely used across multiple industrial sectors, including coatings, inks, wastewater treatment, food processing, and adhesives.

K5602AAppearance :
Translucent liquidFoam is an unstable thermodynamic system formed by gas dispersed within a liquid or solid medium. In numerous industrial production processes, excessive foam readily forms due to factors such as agitation, vibration, coating application, or chemical reactions. This foam leads to reduced production efficiency, product defects, wasted equipment capacity, and ultimately diminished product quality. Defoamers are additives specifically designed to address this issue, with their core functions being:
(1) Rapidly breaking down existing foam (foam breaking);
(2) Long-term suppression of foam reformation (foam inhibition).
K5602A from China AAB Group is a defoamer for water-based coatings. It can be used in color paint formulations, and has good compatibility with pure C emulsion systems, phenyl C emulsion systems, PU dispersions, hybrid systems, resins and other water dilutable systems.
