In March 2026, defoamers, as important additives in industrial production, have attracted much attention for their foam breaking and inhibiting principles and applications. Foam is formed by the interfacial action of insoluble gas and liquid. In the production and construction of coatings and other industries, foam will affect product quality and construction effect, and defoamers have become the core to solve this problem, known as the "quality guardian" of coating formulations.
Defoaming is mainly divided into physical and chemical methods, each with two means of foam inhibition and foam breaking. Physical defoaming is achieved through physical means such as changing temperature, pressure and mechanical stirring without adding chemical substances; chemical defoaming destroys foam stability at the chemical level by adding defoamers and adjusting pH value. Different defoaming methods are suitable for different industrial scenarios. By breaking foam quickly and inhibiting foam for a long time, they block foam generation from the source, ensure production efficiency and product quality, and play an irreplaceable role in many industrial fields.
