Foam formation poses a significant challenge across various industrial processes, leading to operational inefficiencies, product defects, and even equipment damage. In particular, industries utilizing water-based formulations, such as coatings, inks, and adhesives, frequently encounter issues like entrapped air and surface foam, which can compromise the final product's quality and appearance. Recognizing these critical needs, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to offer a highly efficient mineral oil-based defoamer, specifically formulated to tackle these complex foaming problems.

Our specialized defoamer, a pale yellow liquid, is engineered for rapid defoaming action and excellent micro-bubble breaking capabilities. Unlike traditional defoamers that merely address surface foam, this advanced formulation actively works to eliminate even the tiniest entrapped air bubbles that can cause defects like pinholes, craters, and reduced gloss in finished products. Its main component, mineral oil, ensures robust performance, making it a heavy-duty solution for demanding applications. Furthermore, it boasts remarkable long-lasting durability, maintaining its efficacy throughout the production process, from grinding to final application.

The mechanism behind this defoamer's effectiveness lies in its unique properties. It is designed to be largely insoluble in the foaming medium yet possesses surface-active characteristics. Upon addition, it rapidly disperses and spreads across the air-liquid interface, effectively destabilizing the foam lamellas – the thin films that comprise foam bubbles. This disruption causes the bubbles to rupture and collapse quickly, releasing trapped gases. For micro-bubbles, the defoamer facilitates their agglomeration, allowing larger bubbles to rise more swiftly to the surface and dissipate. This dual action ensures both immediate foam knockdown and sustained foam inhibition.

A key advantage of our mineral oil defoamer is its ease of dispersibility in water. This feature simplifies integration into waterborne systems, ensuring consistent and effective foam control. It can be added during either the grinding or paint mixing phases, offering flexibility in application. Moreover, tests indicate a significant reduction in usage quantity—approximately 30% to 50% less compared to peer mineral oil defoaming agents—making it a cost-effective choice for manufacturers aiming to optimize their chemical consumption without compromising performance.

The versatility of this product extends to a wide array of industrial applications where foam control is paramount. While primarily excelling in waterborne coatings, waterborne inks, and adhesives, its fundamental defoaming principles make it adaptable for other industrial processes. From preventing overflows in tanks and reducing downtime to enhancing the aesthetic quality of surface coatings, this defoamer contributes significantly to smoother operations and higher-quality outputs. As a leading manufacturer and supplier, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. ensures that our defoaming solutions meet stringent safety and environmental standards, being non-hazardous, non-flammable, and non-toxic.
