Dow DOWSIL 3-8219 Defoamer

Dow DOWSIL 3-8219 Defoamer is a silicone-based antifoam agent designed for high-shear industrial processes. It rapidly breaks foam and prevents re-foaming in water-based systems like coatings, adhesives, and cleaning formulations. Offering excellent compatibility and low dosage efficiency, it ensures stable performance without affecting product clarity or viscosity.

Features Of Dow DOWSIL 3-8219 Defoamer

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

  2. Excellent compatibility with water-based systems, including acrylic, vinyl acetate, and styrene-butadiene emulsions.

  3. Low dosage requirement—typically effective at 0.05–0.3 wt% active in final formulation.

  4. Thermally stable up to 120°C, maintaining performance during high-temperature polymerization and processing.

  5. Non-yellowing and non-staining, preserving clarity and color integrity in sensitive coatings and adhesives.

Typical Applications Of Dow DOWSIL 3-8219 Defoamer

  1. Architectural and industrial waterborne paints and coatings.

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

  3. Textile and leather finishing auxiliaries.

  4. Construction chemicals, including cementitious mortars and tile adhesives.

  5. Water-based inks and functional fluid systems requiring low-foam processing.
