(antifoam) formulations, and are available in compound, emulsion, and
powder forms, for both aqueous and non-aqueous systems. Learn more about how
antifoams are applied in your industry:
Chemical Process
Silicone is an ideal antifoam. It is liquid within a wide range of
viscosities, has a low surface energy, and is clean. Enhance your chemical
manufacturing processes like mixing, bottle filling, gas scrubbing,
distillation, emulsion polymerization, filtration, and fermentation, using
silicone antifoams and defoamers as formulation and processing aids.
Construction
Find and
compare products for wood-plastic composite, wood-plastic composite
decking, building materials, fencing, and outdoor furniture manufacturing and
protection applications, including Hydrophobic treatments, Adhesion promoters
and coupling agents, Binding and reinforcing materials and antifoams and
processing aids.
Healthcare
Antifoam compounds and emulsions cover a wide range of healthcare
applications such as Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) for
use in OTC anti-flatulent or anti-gas products and Bioprocessing for use as a
process aid in bioreactors, or fermentation processes.
Household
& Cleaning
Dow Corning's silicone antifoam products control, prevent and knock down
foam that occurs during consumer use or in the production of laundry
detergents. Dow Corning has designed many silicone antifoam products that can
