Efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly - the three core advantages of papermaking defoamers

In paper production, foam problem will lead to paper defects, equipment efficiency decline and even energy waste. Professional paper defoamer has become the key to production optimization through its unique performance. Here are its core advantages:

1、 Efficient defoaming and long-lasting foam suppression

The modern defoamer adopts the compound formula of organic silicon, polyether, etc., which can rapidly penetrate the foam membrane and reduce the surface tension to achieve instant foam breaking. Compared with traditional mineral oil defoamers, modified silicone oil defoamers can maintain activity in high-temperature and high shear pulp environments, with a foam inhibition time of over 12 hours and an efficiency improvement of over 30%, significantly reducing the frequency of addition.   

2、 Compatibility and process adaptability

For different papermaking processes such as pulp making, papermaking, and coating, defoamers can adapt to harsh conditions such as pH and temperature by adjusting the composition ratio, avoiding reactions with papermaking chemicals such as sizing agents and reinforcing agents.   

3、 Environmental protection and cost savings

The new bio based defoamer (such as fatty acid esters) has a degradation rate of over 95%, which meets the requirements of green environmental protection laws and regulations. At the same time, low addition amounts (0.01% -0.1%) can reduce wastewater treatment load and help paper companies save comprehensive costs.   

Paper defoamers have made multidimensional breakthroughs in efficiency, adaptability, and sustainability, becoming an invisible "assistant" for improving quality and reducing consumption in the paper industry.
