A chemical additive known as a defoamer, also known as an anti-foaming agent, lowers and prevents the production of foam in industrial process liquids.
Defoamer and antifoam agent are frequently used interchangeably.Some alcohols, such as cetostearyl alcohol, insoluble oils, such as castor oil, stearates, polydimethylsiloxanes and other silicone derivatives, ether, and glycols are frequently used antifoaming agents.
When an antifoaming agent’s micro droplet comes into contact with a liquid film, the high surface activity of the substance can reduce the local film’s surface tension.
This localised region of low surface tension will spread outward, losing its elasticity and capacity for self-healing, leading to the rupture of the liquid film.
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.
The Global liquid cement antifoam additive market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
An antifoaming ingredient for cement slurries, Diacel ATF Liquid Cement Antifoam Additive is compatible with all frequently used cement additives.
To avoid the entrapment of air while mixing, Diacel ATF Liquid Cement Antifoam Additive should be applied to all cement slurries.
Numerous mixing issues can arise as a result of air entrapment. Transfer pump cavitation might happen in the most severe air entrapment situations.
The slurry density will typically seem lower than desired when measured using ordinary density-measuring equipment because of air entrapment.
Negative consequences result if the actual slurry density is raised to make up for the apparent shortage. These outcomes include a rise in slurry viscosity, a fall in slurry volume, and a shortening of the thickening period.
The flexible liquid Cement Antifoam is used in cement slurries to reduce foaming, frothing, and air entrapment during mixing.
GDF CL’s antifoam additives alter the cement slurry’s surface tension to either prevent foaming or cause the foam to break up.
Cementing firms all over the world employ silicon, alcohol, and polyglycol-based defoamers, which are manufactured by GDFCL. Our specialist antifoams can be used with any API oil well cements and other cement additives, and they can be utilised in freshwater, salt water, or sea water slurries.
