BYK 017 is a silicone-based defoamer specifically designed for aqueous pigment concentrates and glycol pastes. It plays a crucial role in preventing foam formation during the grinding process. Its composition, which combines hydrophobic solids and antifoaming polysiloxanes, endows it with excellent defoaming properties. This product not only effectively eliminates foam but also ensures long-term stability. During the grinding process, it can significantly improve the fineness of the final pigment slurry, reduce foam to facilitate better handling of the pigment slurry, and ultimately enhance processing efficiency and the quality of end-products.
Silicone-Based Formulation: Leverages a combination of hydrophobic solids and antifoaming polysiloxanes to deliver excellent defoaming performance.
Foam Prevention & Elimination: Effectively prevents foam formation during grinding and eliminates existing foam, addressing critical foam-related issues.
Long-Term Stability: Ensures the stability of systems over time, maintaining consistent performance.
Enhances Fineness: Improves the fineness of the final pigment slurry during grinding, contributing to better material quality.
Improves Processability: Reduces foam to facilitate easier handling of pigment slurry, boosting processing efficiency.
Pigment Concentrates: Highly suitable for the production of aqueous pigment concentrates. During the grinding stage of pigment manufacturing, it prevents foam-induced problems like uneven particle size distribution, resulting in a more homogeneous and stable pigment concentrate.
Glycol Pastes: Effective in defoaming glycol paste formulations, ensuring smooth flow and optimal application properties of the pastes.
Printing Inks: As a component in printing inks, it helps maintain the integrity of the ink formulation. By preventing foam formation, it ensures consistent color density and smooth printing performance.
Coatings: In aqueous coating systems, it improves surface quality by preventing foam-induced pinholes and other surface defects, resulting in more aesthetically pleasing and durable coatings.
