During the washing and slicing stage of the manufacturing process, these defoamers are added to the potato water circuit. By preventing foam buildup, they maximize production efficiency and product quality. Defoamers are typically inert compounds.
A liquid, such silicone or mineral oil, plus a hydrophobic solid, like hydrophobic silica, ethylene-bis-stearamide, fatty acid, and/or fatty alcohol, make up defoamers. A defoamer must be insoluble in the medium it is defoaming in order to be effective.
When producing, processing, and packaging food and beverages, antifoaming solutions safely and effectively decrease foaming issues. They address problems including impact effectiveness, overflowing vessels, productivity, and cost by acting as both antifoams and defoamers.
To lessen or get rid of foam after it has formed, a system is loaded with defoamers, which are foam management agents. Antifoaming agents are foam control agents that are included in a system or formulation to stop foam from forming.
The global Food-Grade Defoamer market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Foam aster WO 2360, a new defoamer from BASF, complies with major food contact regulations including Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Title 21, Food Contact Materials Regulation (EC), Bundesinstitut für Risiko bewertung (BfR), and Swiss Ordinance on Food Contact Materials for packaging, as well as China’s GB 9685-2016 food contact regulation for adhesives.
The use of additives in food contact materials and related products is regulated by China’s National Food Safety Standard GB 9685-2016. The National Health and Family Planning Commission of China (NHFPC), which went into effect, introduced it.
The novel white oil-based defoamer has good oil-slick resistance during storage for adhesive formulations, outstanding and sustained defoaming efficacy, and high compatibility across acrylic PSA systems.
Foam aster WO 2360, when used in paper coatings, also demonstrates outstanding defoaming effectiveness together with good anti-foaming and quick foam break time.
Foam aster WO 2360 is generally suited for paper coating formulations, barrier coatings, paper and paperboard applications, and any other application that requires contact with food because of its adaptability. As a result, clients no longer need to stock up on various defoamers.
