There is no unified understanding of the mechanism of defoaming agents. According to the mechanism of defoaming agents proposed by predecessors, there are generally the following types: [4]
General defoaming mechanism
Typical defoaming mechanisms with a broad overview are the Robinson defoaming mechanism and the Ross hypothesis. Among them, Robinson mechanism is the basis of Ross hypothesis, which mainly emphasizes the liquid drainage of defoamer destroying foam and Marangoni effect to realize defoaming; The Ross hypothesis is based on the fact that the defoamer particles are insoluble droplets, while some defoamers actually produce defoaming effects in a dissolved state, so the defoaming mechanism of the Ross hypothesis is not comprehensive
Organosilicon type Free of silicone defoamers can reduce tension on the surface of coatings, have excellent defoaming and foam inhibiting capabilities, and have little effect on the gloss of the coating film under different environmental factors. However, when not used properly, they can cause poor recoating performance, uneven surface such as film shrinkage, and polyether type defoamers have high compatibility requirements and weak defoaming capabilities.
The water-based mineral oil Free of silicone defoamershas a fast defoaming speed and a foam inhibiting effect of up to several hours, which is also well matched with the foam system. It can be carried out in harsh environments such as high temperatures and strong alkalis, with good results. After use, there will be no phenomena such as oil bleaching and demulsification
