High viscosity of fatty alcohol antifoam is good or low viscosity of fatty alcohol defoamer is good? Many people are confused! First of all, we need to know the fatty alcohol defoamer is emulsion antifoaming agent.  Viscosity is related to the liquidity.  High viscosity fatty alcohol defoamer is easy to be thickness which is not good for pumping. And there is another misunderstanding for...

In fermentation industry, including molasses fermentation, alcoholic fermentation, yeast or amino acid production, and other processes, no matter what type material, the excessive foam affect the efficiency and quality of production. Generally , silicone and polyether defoamers provide high efficiently antifoaming performance in fermentation. How to find a suitable defoamer solution in fermentatio...

Paper making process is an important process for paper forming. A lot of additives, such as sizing agent, retention agent, filter aid,wet strength agent,dry strength agent etc are to be used to form paper with certain performance. These additives are added in different dosing points. And it’s easy to form foaming during white water circulation in closed system. Silicone defoamer, fatty alcoho...

Antifoam is a chemical compound used to reduce foam in papermaking white water. It is typically added to the wet end of the papermaking process, where it helps to prevent foam from forming and interfering with the production process.  According to the different requirements and conditions, fatty alcohol antifoams and polyether defoamers are most acceptable in paper mills. They have their own ...

Harm of foaming: Foam in water-reducing admixtures/ concrete admixture can cause a number of problems. Foam can reduce the effectiveness of the admixture, leading to reduced performance in concrete. It can also cause air entrainment, which can lead to increased permeability and decreased strength. Additionally, foam can reduce the flowability of the admixture, making it difficult to mix and a...

Harm of foam: Foam in cement mortar can reduce the strength of the mortar, reduce its water-resistance, and increase its permeability. This can lead to structural damage over time due to water infiltration, which can cause cracking and spalling of the mortar. Foam also reduces the bond between the cement and aggregate, resulting in a weaker mortar. In addition, foam can trap air bubbles in the mor...

Harm of foam in oil refinery Foam in an oil refinery can be dangerous because it can cause fires and explosions. Foam is a combustible material, and when it is exposed to heat or sparks, it can ignite and cause a fire or explosion. Foam can also block pipes and valves, which can lead to equipment failure and disruption of the refinery's operations. Additionally, foam can reduce the efficiency of t...

Foam is often used as a delivery system for pesticides, but it can be dangerous if not used properly. Foam can trap and concentrate the pesticide in one area, leading to an increased risk of exposure to humans and animals. It can also cause damage to plants and other organisms if not applied correctly. Additionally, foam can be difficult to remove from surfaces and may leave behind residues that c...
