Silicone antifoams - processing aids that control foam-intensive operations

Prayon Benelux

Our partnership with Dutch-based BRB Silicones has intensified and has been a decennium-long success. With our diversified portfolio of silicone fluids, we are here to serve a solution in the form of products for a great variety of markets.

One of the products we serve are silicone-based antifoams. Foam formation creates serious technological problems in many physical or chemical processing which involves mixing and agitation of multicomponent liquids. BRB’s antifoam are processing aids that control foam-intensive applications to improve safety and throughput, which give benefits to the final product used by consumers.

BRB Akasil® range of foam control agents is the culmination of 40 years development into siloxane-based technology. The range offers superlative foam-control characteristics to treat susceptible processes and formulations spanning a scope of applications. BRB Akasil® Antifoam range offers materials for use in water and solvent based, alongside solventless systems (in a broad pH range). All pack formats are catered for and we can assist best practices in terms of cost efficient dosing.

The antifoams can be used in different markets such as agro-chemicals, food/feed, construction chemicals, adhesives and sealants, paint & coatings and many more.
