BYK 024 is a silicone-based defoamer that contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It is designed for use in a variety of waterborne systems, including latex paints, printing inks, clear topcoats, and emulsion adhesives. BYK 024 is characterized by excellent compatibility, broad applicability, and ease of incorporation.
BYK 024 exhibits outstanding compatibility with a wide range of water-based systems such as latex paints, printing inks, topcoats, and emulsion adhesives.
In addition to waterborne coatings, BYK 024 is suitable for a variety of other applications, including plastic coatings, wood and floor varnishes, furniture finishes, pigment concentrates, and automotive coatings.
The defoamer can be easily introduced into the production process without negatively impacting formulation or processing conditions.
Formulated without volatile organic compounds, BYK 024 meets environmental regulations and supports sustainable formulation development.
In latex paint formulations, BYK 024 demonstrates excellent defoaming performance, effectively preventing the formation and accumulation of air bubbles.
Suitable for waterborne acrylic/polyurethane and polyurethane systems, as well as water-based UV-curable inks, BYK 024 helps enhance print quality and ink stability.
When used in clear coat applications, BYK 024 ensures a bubble-free finish, contributing to improved gloss and overall aesthetic quality.
BYK 024 is also effective in waterborne emulsion adhesives, improving both bonding strength and formulation stability by minimizing foam formation.
Ensure compatibility between BYK 024 and the specific waterborne system before use.
Avoid storage and use under extreme temperature conditions (high heat or freezing), as this may impair defoaming efficiency.
In case of any technical issues or uncertainties during use, contact your supplier for guidance.
