Dow SILASTIC 9204-20 Defoamer

Dow SILASTIC 9204-20 Defoamer is a high-performance silicone-based antifoam agent designed for demanding industrial processes. It rapidly breaks foam and suppresses re-foaming in aqueous systems, especially under high shear, temperature, or surfactant-rich conditions. Ideal for coatings, adhesives, and chemical manufacturing, it offers excellent compatibility and low dosage efficiency.

Features Of Dow SILASTIC 9204-20 Defoamer

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

  2. Excellent compatibility with silicone elastomer systems, including high-consistency rubber (HCR) and liquid silicone rubber (LSR).

  3. Low dosage requirement—typically effective at 0.05–0.3 wt% in formulated systems.

  4. Thermally stable up to 200 °C, maintaining performance during high-temperature curing processes.

  5. Non-migrating formulation that minimizes surface defects and ensures consistent part aesthetics.

Typical Applications Of Dow SILASTIC 9204-20 Defoamer

  1. Defoaming in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) injection molding compounds.

  2. Foam control during high-consistency rubber (HCR) calendering and extrusion.

  3. Processing aid in silicone gel and encapsulation formulations for electronics.

  4. Anti-foaming agent in silicone-based adhesives and sealants manufacturing.

  5. Stabilization of silicone emulsions used in textile and personal care ingredient applications.
