Features Of Dow 8014 Defoamer

  1. Highly effective silicone-based defoamer for rapid foam knockdown and long-term foam suppression.

  2. Excellent compatibility with water-based systems, including high-solids and low-VOC formulations.

  3. Thermally stable up to 150°C, maintaining performance in elevated-temperature processing conditions.

  4. Low addition dosage requirement—typically effective at 0.05–0.3 wt% in most applications.

  5. Non-staining and non-affecting on final product clarity or surface appearance in coatings and adhesives.

Typical Applications Of Dow 8014 Defoamer

  1. Architectural and industrial waterborne coatings (e.g., acrylic, PVA, styrene-acrylic emulsions).

  2. Adhesives and sealants, particularly latex-based and pressure-sensitive formulations.

  3. Construction chemicals, including cementitious grouts, tile adhesives, and self-leveling underlayments.

  4. Textile auxiliaries such as dyeing assistants, printing pastes, and fabric finishing baths.

  5. Water treatment systems where foam control is critical during clarification and biological treatment stages.
