Foam-related challenges frequently plague industries like chemical processing, petroleum refining, textile manufacturing, and water treatment, often resulting in reduced production efficiency, inconsistent product quality, and even equipment operational disruptions. Conventional defoamers typically suffer from inadequate persistence, thermal degradation at high temperatures, or poor system compatibility - creating urgent demand for more effective solutions.
Defoaming Mechanism: How Silicone Polyether Rapidly Breaks Foam
1.Rapid Surface Migration: Silicone polyether molecules quickly diffuse to foam interfaces, reducing localized surface tension.
2.Film Structure Disruption: Penetration effects thin the liquid film, accelerating bubble collapse.
3.Persistent Foam Suppression: Polyether segments maintain stable dispersion within the system to prevent foam regeneration.
Unlike single-component defoamers, silicone polyether variants demonstrate exceptional performance stability even under extreme conditions including high temperatures, intense shear forces, and wide pH ranges.
Key Product Advantages: Why Choose Silicone Polyether Defoamers?
1.Broad-Spectrum Compatibility: Effective in both oil-based and aqueous systems across diverse process conditions.
2.High-Temperature Resilience: Maintains defoaming efficacy at sustained temperatures exceeding 150°C.
3.High Efficiency at Low Dosage: Achieves significant foam suppression at minimal concentrations (0.01%-0.5%).
4.Enhanced Stability: Exhibits excellent long-term storage stability without stratification and superior system compatibility.
Success Story: Foam Control in Petrochemical Distillation
A major refinery experienced severe foaming during crude oil distillation, causing 20% reduction in column efficiency. After comprehensive bench-scale testing, Kemitech's technical team identified optimal injection points and dosage for their silicone polyether defoamer. Implementation resulted in 80% reduction in foam layer height, full restoration of distillation efficiency, and annual energy cost savings exceeding 1 million USD.
