In the application of epoxy resins, whether for potting, encapsulation, composite materials, or adhesive formulation, bubble formation has consistently been a challenging issue for many producers. These tiny bubbles not only severely affect the aesthetic finish of the product but also create internal defects, leading to reduced mechanical properties, compromised insulation characteristics, and even potential cracking issues later. Traditional methods relying solely on vacuum degassing or static settling are often inefficient and offer limited effectiveness for high-viscosity systems or complex operating conditions.
Addressing this core challenge, Chemi Tech leverages its technical expertise in specialty chemicals to develop a series of high-performance defoamers specifically for epoxy resins. Our solution is not merely about adding an additive; it is a systematic process. First, we clarify the source of bubbles through technical analysis: Are they air entrained during mixing, or gaseous by-products generated from the reaction? Second, based on your resin system, curing process, and final performance requirements, we precisely match the type of defoamer for you. Our products offer excellent compatibility and persistence, ensuring stable foam suppression and breaking functions throughout the mixing and early curing stages.
The specific application steps are clear and straightforward: Add the recommended dosage of Chemi Tech defoamer during the resin component mixing stage, and achieve uniform dispersion through routine stirring. It rapidly reduces the surface tension of the system, promoting the quick rise and rupture of internal bubbles. Even for potting operations with complex inserts, it effectively prevents bubble entrapment, achieving smooth filling.
We assisted an electronic component manufacturer in resolving bubble issues within their epoxy potting compound. The customer previously faced dense internal bubbles, leading to unsatisfactory electrical test yields. After adopting the customized defoaming solution from Chemi Tech, under the same process conditions, the transparency and uniformity of the potted components significantly improved, with internal bubbles becoming nearly invisible to the naked eye. The final product's electrical insulation performance and physical strength were also verified by the customer. This success stems from the perfect compatibility of the defoamer with the resin system and its excellent temperature resistance, ensuring sustained effectiveness at curing temperatures.
Choosing Chemi Tech means you receive not just a defoamer product, but a targeted technical support and problem-solving package. We are committed to helping you enhance the quality and reliability of your epoxy resin products, making your production process smoother and more efficient.
