JebChem 1009M AQ – Mineral Oil Defoamer

Jan 30, 2024 | Innovations

 JebChem 1009M AQ

JebChem 1009M AQ is designed as a highly efficient mineral oil defoamer that operates well at low concentration levels, making it cost-effective for use in applications where foam creation is a concern. Its formulation does not include organopolysiloxane, setting it apart from other defoamers in the market that might rely on this compound.

The product’s combination of mineral oil, metallic soap, silica, polyether, and dispersant contributes to its robust foam-breaking performance. This blend is crafted to ensure that the product does not just suppress foam temporarily, but also prevents it from forming again, which is vital for processes where foam can cause defects or inefficiencies.

A key advantage of JebChem 1009M AQ is its stability within systems, meaning that it does not separate or degrade, ensuring consistent performance over time. The fact that it is not recommended to dilute with water prior to use implies that it is ready to use in its original form, which can save time and reduce the potential for incorrect dilutions that could compromise its effectiveness.

Conclusion

In side-by-side comparisons with competitors’ products, such as B037 and S125, JebChem 1009M AQ demonstrates superior defoaming efficiency, especially in pure acrylic and styrene acrylic emulsion paint. This suggests that it could be particularly beneficial in paint and coating applications, where foam can significantly impact the quality of the final product.
