DUBLIN, Sept 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Defoamers: Global Markets to 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The report provides an analysis based on each market segment, which includes oil-based, silicone-based, water-based, and other defoamers. Silicone-based defoamers held the largest market share in 2016 in terms of revenue followed by water-based defoamers, oil-based defoamers, and other deformers. The water-based defoamers segment is expected to rise at the highest CAGR throughout the forecast period.

Estimated values used are based on the consumption of defoamers in the North American, South American, European, Asia-Pacific, and RoW regions as well as at the country level. The report scope covers different applications of defoamers in agrochemicals, coatings, food and beverages, pulp and paper, water treatment, and other applications. Projected and forecasted revenue values are in constant U.S. dollars, unadjusted for inflation, and values are expressed in metric kilotons.

Defoamers, or anti-foaming agents, are used to prevent or reduce foam formation in industrial process liquids. Defoamers have been widely used in various industries such as agrochemicals, coatings, food and beverages, pulp and paper, and water treatment. The basic purpose served by defoamers in these industries is to reduce foam, as foam poses serious threats; for example, the foam can reduce container filling efficiency or cause defects in surface coatings. In the agrochemicals industry, defoamers are used for the foam caused from mixtures of emulsifiers, dispersants, wetting agents, compatibilizers, and other chemicals.

The efficiency of paints and coatings are affected due to excess foaming, and thus defoamers have been widely adopted in the coatings industry. Further, defoamers help to reduce foam in various processes such as production, processing, and packaging in the food and beverages industry. Furthermore, anti-foaming agents are applied to various processes such as bleaching, dyeing, and scouring in the paper industry. Moreover, defoamers are used for water treatment, such as wastewater and effluent treatment, steam generation, distillation, and cooling water systems.

The Report Includes:

  • 56 data tables and 80 additional tables
  • An overview of the global market for defoamers
  • Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2016 and 2017, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) through 2022
  • Market breakdown by products, applications, and by region
  • Explanation of major drivers and regional dynamics of the global defoamers market and current trends within the industry
