Research Summary

Water-based defoamers are chemical additives formulated to control and eliminate foam formation in water-based systems. These defoamers are commonly used in industrial processes, such as manufacturing, wastewater treatment, food processing, and paint production, where excessive foam can interfere with operations and product quality. Water-based defoamers work by reducing the surface tension of the liquid, disrupting foam bubbles, and releasing entrapped air or gas. They typically contain surfactants, silicone compounds, or other active ingredients that destabilize foam structures and prevent foam from forming. Water-based defoamers are preferred for their effectiveness, compatibility with aqueous systems, and environmental friendliness compared to oil-based defoamers. They play a crucial role in improving process efficiency, preventing equipment damage, and ensuring product quality in various industries where foam control is essential.
