ANTIFOAMZERA I20
Antifoamzera I20 is a high-efficiency industrial silicone-based antifoam, formulated to control and eliminate persistent foam across a wide variety of industrial processes. The product is available as an aqueous emulsion or viscous oil, depending on the user’s specific needs. Its active component is a silicone compound containing dimethylpolysiloxane, combined with hydrophobic additives and selected emulsifiers, allowing rapid dispersion in foaming media, even under intense agitation or continuous flow. This specialized formulation enables Antifoamzera I20 to act quickly and sustainably in aqueous systems, effectively disrupting the formation and stabilization of surface foam and facilitating the release of trapped air in liquids.
From a technical standpoint, Antifoamzera I20 exhibits excellent thermal and chemical stability, remaining effective across a wide range of pH levels and temperatures. Its dimethylpolysiloxane-based composition allows it to migrate easily to the surface of foam bubbles, where it breaks surface tension, collapsing the bubbles and preventing reformation. The hydrophobic additives in its matrix reinforce this defoaming action while improving compatibility with both aqueous and slightly viscous systems. The inclusion of suitable emulsifiers ensures rapid and uniform dispersion, which is key to guaranteeing immediate and consistent performance upon contact with foaming media.
One of the most valued properties of Antifoamzera I20 is its ability to eliminate difficult foams, even those formed in processes containing proteins, surfactants, alkalis, or organic contaminants. Beyond acting on visible foam, it also eliminates microbubbles and entrapped air, improving process efficiency and preventing defects in final products. Thanks to these properties, this antifoam finds applications across a wide range of industries:
- In the chemical industry, it is used in reactors, mixing tanks, and fluid transport lines.
- In acid and agrochemical manufacturing, it prevents foam formation that interferes with dosage precision.
- In wastewater treatment plants, it stabilizes aeration systems.
- In the paper industry, it controls foam during production and coating stages.
- In washing applications, such as bottle and equipment cleaning, it ensures cleaner and more efficient operations.
Another key advantage of Antifoamzera I20 is its compatibility with automated dosing systems and its ease of incorporation without the need for pre-mixing or pH adjustment. This makes it a practical solution for continuous processes where efficiency and reliability are critical. Thanks to its balanced formulation, it can be used both as a preventive and corrective treatment, adapting to diverse challenges presented by foaming systems in modern industry.
