Silicone defoaming agent is a silicone-based foam-control additive designed to reduce unwanted foam during industrial production and processing. Depending on the application, it can be supplied as a 100% active silicone compound, a self-emulsifying concentrate, or a silicone emulsion for compatible oil-based, solvent-free, and water-based systems.

It helps break down surface foam and suppress further foam formation, supporting more stable processing and a smoother finished appearance in compatible formulations. Selected grades can also help control entrained air and microbubbles in higher-viscosity systems.

This silicone defoaming agent series is used in coatings, inks, adhesives, resin systems, paper manufacturing, textile dyeing and finishing, fermentation, wastewater treatment, oilfield processes, and other industrial foam-control applications. The appropriate grade should be selected according to the formulation medium, process conditions, and required defoaming performance.

Key Features

Grades for Solvent-Free and Oil-Based Systems

Models 7-200 and 7-300 are 100% active silicone defoaming agents based on hydrophobic-particle-containing polysiloxane compounds. They are suitable for compatible solvent-free and oil-based systems where defoaming, foam suppression, or microbubble elimination is required.

Model 7-300 provides a higher viscosity range and is intended for compatible high-viscosity and solvent-free systems.

Self-Emulsifying and Aqueous-System Options

Model 7-500 is a concentrated self-emulsifying defoamer with good water dilutability and compatibility across acidic, alkaline, saline, electrolyte, and hard-water environments.

Models 7-600 and 7-602 are silicone-emulsion grades for aqueous foam systems. They are designed for rapid defoaming and sustained foam suppression in compatible textile, paper, oilfield, wastewater-treatment, cleaning, and related industrial processes.

Selection by Viscosity, Active Content and Process Conditions

The series provides viscosity ranges from 200–500 cSt to 2,000–3,000 cSt for the 100% active grades, while the emulsion grades provide active contents of 25% or 30% with a pH range of 6–8.

Applications and Formulation Notes

Coatings, Inks, Adhesives and Resin Systems

Models 7-200 and 7-300 can be used in compatible coatings, PCB inks, screen-printing inks, epoxy-based adhesives, phenolic resins, UV-curable inks, epoxy floor coatings, and unsaturated polyester systems.

Select the grade according to the system viscosity, processing method, required appearance, and need for foam suppression or microbubble elimination. Confirm compatibility with pigments, resins, solvents, curing agents, and other formulation components before production-scale use.

Paper, Textile, Leather and Fermentation Processes

Models 7-500, 7-600, and 7-602 can be considered for compatible paper manufacturing, textile dyeing and finishing, leather processing, and fermentation applications.

The selected grade should be evaluated according to the aqueous-system conditions, pH range, process temperature, foam intensity, addition point, and compatibility with other processing auxiliaries.

Oilfield, Petroleum and Wastewater Applications

Model 7-200 is listed for compatible petroleum-processing gas-scrubbing and vacuum-distillation-unit applications. Models 7-600 and 7-602 can be considered for compatible oilfield and wastewater-treatment foam-control systems.

Evaluate defoaming performance, long-term foam suppression, water dispersibility, process compatibility, and final operational performance under actual application conditions.
