Wrong choice of antifoam agent, the consequences are endless
Many customers in the choice of defoamer in the face of a wide range of products, dazzled, simple sample, the choice of the wrong antifoam agent, the results of the production and operation of a great impact, the consequences of this with the following summary of the following points:
01. Affect the appearance of the product
After choosing the wrong defoamer agent and adding it to their products, the foam is eliminated, but it makes the product cloudy and lose its original color. This will seriously affect the appearance of the product, and finally lead to sales difficulties and become a problem product. The industries that are more prone to this situation are: metal cutting fluid.
02. Influence product performance indicators
Chemical defoamer added to the product, affecting the product indicators, resulting in their own product testing failed. Although the antifoam agent is a very small amount of additives, but after adding to the product, some of its components and the original product components to produce a chemical reaction, then some other substances will be formed, and these substances are likely to affect the indicators of your products, ultimately leading to the detection of failure. The industries that are more prone to this situation are: the paint industry.
03. Although the unit price has decreased, the increase in additive dosage has led to an increase in costs.
This situation is more common, looking for a new supplier, choose a new antifoam agent, the unit price looks really reduced a lot, but because of the product content and other issues, so that the amount of additive becomes larger, and even become 2 to 4 times the previous, then a year down the line, found that the production cost but increased, because the antifoam agent unit price is reduced at the same time, the active ingredient is also reduced, then to achieve the same effect, you can only add the amount of Increase.
04. There are residues that do not dissolve and have an impact on production equipment
There were customers, because they want low price products, so they chose cheap solid antifoam agent, but because the low price of antifoam agent carrier is waste stone ash, difficult to dissolve in the product system, and finally led to the clogging of the machine pipeline, and finally from abroad to introduce advanced equipment loss, spending a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to repair. And the corresponding high-quality solid antifoam agent although the price is high, but the carrier solubility is good, there will be no residue and precipitation, the production equipment will not have an impact, and at the same time excellent anti-foaming performance.
The above are a series of adverse consequences caused by incorrect selection of defoamers. Of course, there are still many, so we won't list them one by one. In summary, it is important and important to choose the appropriate defoamer.
