Dow DOWSIL FS 91 Defoamer

Dow DOWSIL FS 91 Defoamer is a silicone-based antifoam agent from Dow’s DOWSIL specialty silicones portfolio. Designed for water-based systems, it rapidly breaks foam and suppresses re-foaming in coatings, adhesives, and industrial cleaners. Its low dosage efficiency, excellent compatibility, and stable performance under shear make it ideal for high-speed manufacturing processes.

Features Of Dow DOWSIL FS 91 Defoamer

  1. Highly effective silicone-based defoamer for rapid foam knockdown and sustained foam control.

  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, supporting high-temperature processing conditions.

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

Typical Applications Of Dow DOWSIL FS 91 Defoamer

  1. Architectural and industrial waterborne paints and coatings.

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

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

  4. Textile auxiliaries such as dyeing and finishing baths.

  5. Water treatment systems requiring low-foaming process aids.
