In the production and application of waterborne acrylate systems, foam issues often become a critical bottleneck restricting product quality and production efficiency. Whether it's high-speed stirring during production or roller/brush application during construction, persistent foam not only affects production filling efficiency but can also lead to final film defects such as craters, fisheyes, and uneven gloss, severely impacting product appearance and performance.
Common market pain points include: poor compatibility of traditional defoamers, easily causing surface defects; insufficient persistent foam inhibition, unable to meet long-term application demands; and unstable performance across various formulation systems, increasing process adjustment complexity.
Chemi Tech specializes in the research and development of additives for waterborne systems. Our series of waterborne acrylate defoamers are designed precisely to address these core challenges. Our products utilize special modified polysiloxane and organic polymer compound technology, offering excellent compatibility and defoaming efficiency. The specific application steps are as follows: First, add during the early grinding and dispersion stage of production to effectively suppress mechanical foam generation. Second, supplement during the paint adjustment stage to ensure long-lasting foam inhibition during storage and application. The typical addition amount is 0.1%-0.5% of the total formulation, with small-scale testing recommended to determine the optimal ratio.
We once assisted an industrial coatings company in East China in resolving foam issues in their acrylic topcoat. The client faced severe foam overflow during production line filling, and the finished paint resulted in minor pinholes in the film after spraying. By recommending and using our KT-328 defoamer, with a 0.2% addition during the grinding stage, the client successfully eliminated production foam, increasing filling line efficiency by 15%. Simultaneously, the dried film surface became smooth and even, completely eliminating pinhole problems, and the customer expressed satisfaction with the final coating result.
Choosing Chemi Tech means choosing a reliable problem-solving partner. Our technical team can provide targeted product selection advice and process optimization support to help your waterborne acrylate systems achieve more stable and higher-quality production and application.
