Why do defoaming agents become “industrial MSG”?
Why is defoamer called “industrial monosodium glutamate”? As a delicious compound, monosodium glutamate is ubiquitous in our nutritional life. Defoamer is a compound that is very similar to monosodium glutamate in industrial production. It does not require too much demand, but has a very unique effect. It is “defoamer”.
In most application sites, there is no need to recall the cause of foaming, or to find out the cause of foaming. Moreover, the foaming factors in each manufacturing industry are different. More specifically, the foaming factors in each production process of each manufacturer are different. Adding defoamer is a more convenient, efficient and effective solution. Therefore, defoamer is deeply loved and welcomed by each manufacturing industry, and the development trend is rapid. Since the beginning of the 1980s, the annual demand for defoamers in the world has reached more than 600,000 tons. Defoamers have played a leading role in improving production processes, improving product quality, saving costs, saving energy, improving productivity, and increasing added value, so they are called “industrial monosodium glutamate”.
Characteristics of defoamers
● Fast demulsification and good anti-foaming characteristics;
● Basic characteristics of not harming the management of the foaming system;
● Good diffusivity and water absorption;
● Stable analytical chemistry;
● No physiological non-specificity, corrosion resistance, safety, no poor side effects, flame retardant, non-explosive, and high safety performance.
