High-Clarity Defoamer for Water-Based Industrial Cleaners

Foam in water-based cleaners causes equipment idling and cleaning defects during spray or ultrasonic processes. Traditional defoamers leave silicone spots or films. Chemi Tech’s polyether-silicone block copolymer technology achieves:

Optical Clarity: Nonionic microemulsion (HLB 12–14) maintains ≥95% light transmission in cleaners.

Dynamic Foam Control: Suppresses foam to <2cm height for 72 hours in 50–80°C recirculating systems.

Zero Residue: Controlled molecular weight (8,000–10,000 Da) prevents filming on metal surfaces.

Case Study: Precision Parts Cleaning Line

An automotive parts plant suffered 40% efficiency loss due to foam buildup. Adding 0.1% Chemi Tech defoamer resulted in:

Foam layer reduction from 15cm to 1cm, cutting downtime by 80%.

70% fewer residual particles on components, raising pass rate to 98%.

The nanoscale defoaming particles deliver seamless integration for industrial cleaners.
