High stability, high efficiency
The textile auxiliaries like emulsifiers, leveling agents, dyeing agents and printing inks used in different production phases such as pulping, bleaching, dyeing, finishing and sizing cause foam formation when exposed to mechanical vibrations, high shear forces, high temperatures, and high alkali and pH changes. In order to control the foam formation, we offer a specific range of defoamer and antifoam agents that are incorporated into other textile additives or added directly into the foam formation medium.
Offered with silicone-based or silicone-free alternatives, TERRAFOAM® line Defoamer and Antifoam Agent provide an effective and efficient foam control, and contribute to the cost optimization. In addition, they help to enhance the process performances, as well as the final product qualities.
