Chevell Performance Material Group

Processes in textiles include desizing (removal of the size material from warp yarns after weaving), bleaching, dyeing, printing, washing, scouring etc. produce some degree of unwanted foams that lower productivity.

Chevell silicone antifoam Agent and defoaming agents used in the right combinations, make manufacturing more efficient and cleaner, improve the quality of final products, reduce waste and energy consumption and facilitate recycling.

Silicone foam control solutions (also referred to as Silicone Antifoam Agent, Antifoam agents,Defoamers,Defoaming agent) are recognized as the material of choice for Textile & Leather processing because they offer several advantages:

Silicone Antifoam Agent prevent foam from occurring and reduce it more quickly and efficiently when it does occur, known as the knockdown effect, accelerating processing speed and improving Leather & Textile productivity and quality.
They decrease the consumption of water and chemicals, such as bleach or dyes.
Silicone Antifoam Agent are more resistant to chemical additives, as well as temperature variations, thus ensuring stability throughout the process.
The quantities of silicone products needed to achieve required effects are much lower than organic or mineral-based products and offer more durable low surface tension, especially important in complex and long-lasting processes.
PHD48: Silicone antifoam for multiple uses. Imparts tough durability to treated textiles in both acidic and alkaline environments
PHD48 is high-performance antifoam emulsion available for multiple uses in the textile industry,the product generally creates exceptional durability at low add-on levels, and performs effectively at much lower use levels than other silicone antifoams on the market.
