They offer low viscosity and spread rapidly on the foamy surface.This is an essential characteristic of defoamers.
Defoamers have an affinity toward air-liquid surfaces, where they threaten the formation of foam lamellas. This results in the rupture of air bubbles and breakdown of the surface foam.
Defoamers play a crucial role in pulp and paper mills, as they help prevent the formation of foam.They are surface active agents such as esters or amides of fatty acids and PE glycols.
Various types of problems occur due to the build-up of foam in paper mills.These include difficulties in the formation of paper, creation of deposits, development of bacteria, and drainage problems.
Defoamers improve drainage in kraft pulp stock and sulfite stock in pulp mills.Usage of defoamers reduces paper breaking, thus improving the function of paper machine.
Defoamers reduce steam consumption. This helps save energy and other costs. These properties are anticipated to drive the defoamers market.
Demand for defoamers is high in water treatment and food & beverages segments.However, demand for defoamers in paints & coatings and metalworking fluids segments is expected to rise significantly during the forecast period.
The paints & coatings industry has been growing at a significant pace due to rise in requirement for decorative paints.The metalworking fluids sector is estimated to remain lucrative during the next few years.
Increase in use of innovative products and a rise in focus on process R&D are key factors driving the demand for specialty chemicals including certain additives and softeners.
