Defoamers (Antifoaming Agents) are chemicals that rapidly break foam and suppress its return in papermaking, textiles, wastewater treatment, fermentation and cleaning.
In this category: This category covers organic silicon (silicone) defoamer, a weak-anionic emulsion for general foam control, and polyether defoamer (QT-XPJ-101/102) for biological wastewater (aeration tanks) and fermentation. A defoamer knocks down existing foam; an antifoam suppresses new foam — most products do both.
What is the difference between a defoamer and an antifoam?
Strictly, a defoamer knocks down existing foam while an antifoam prevents new foam from forming, but most commercial products do both. VCYCLETECH offers silicone (organic silicon) and polyether defoamers that give fast foam knockdown and lasting suppression at low dose.
Silicone or polyether defoamer — which should I use?
Use organic silicon (silicone) defoamer for general papermaking, textile and cleaning duties, and polyether defoamer for biological wastewater (aeration tanks, where it does not harm bacteria), fermentation and high-temperature or strongly alkaline systems, and where silicone is unwanted.
Does VCYCLETECH manufacture defoamers?
Yes. VCYCLETECH manufactures organic silicon and polyether defoamers factory-direct in China to national standards, ISO 9001/14001/45001 certified, with a COA on every batch, free samples and OEM/ODM service.
