What Are the different types of anti foaming agents and what are they used for? Popular perceptions of anti foaming agents and defoamers are said to include four primary types of anti foaming and defoaming agents. Silicone-free liquid defoamers and anti foaming agents, silicone-based liquid defoamers and anti foaming agents, silicone-free powdered defoamers and anti foaming agents, and silicone-based powdered defoamers and anti foaming agents.
Silicone-free liquid anti foaming agents are typically more effective in water-based and solvent-based systems. Various manufacturers choose silicone-free liquid anti foaming agents because they control the ability of foams to regenerate, are known to not cause discoloration, and are effective in formaldehyde-sensitive environments. Silicone-free anti foaming agent suppliers like Ecolink provide these products to industries that manufacture adhesives, coatings, metal products, paints, resins, rubber, film developing chemicals among others.
Silicone-based liquid anti foaming agents are constructed with functional additives and non-ionic surfactants that are used when making silicone-based liquid anti foaming agents. Many end-users purchase silicone-based liquid anti foaming agents for their surface tension-altering properties. Some industrial users purchase silicone-based liquid anti foaming agents, combining them with hydrophobic solids to increase the anti foaming and defoaming effects.
Some purchasers choose silicone-free powdered anti foaming agents for cement mixtures, wettable agrochemical powders, and dry flowable agrochemicals. Silicone-free powdered anti foaming agents are widely sought after for their competitive cost and work efficiencies while being able to be stably stored.
Silicone-based powdered anti foaming agents are constructed from silicone-based anti foaming compounds. They are used in many and varied industries including adhesives, agriculture, construction, detergents, oil refining, paints, inks, coatings, and textiles for their lasting anti foaming and defoaming power and stability in small concentrations.

Corrosion Inhibitors – What Are They & How Do They Work?
/in Corrosion Inhibitors/by Industrial DegreasersWhy are corrosion inhibitors important for water processing systems like HVACs, boilers, water cooling systems, and more? Corrosion and scale build-up can cause damage to major systems that use water for processing, so it is important to use chemical inhibitors to remove and prevent the build-up of these damaging elements.
What is corrosion?Corrosion occurs when metals break down into their chemical stable compounds, like metal oxides, metal sulfides, or metal hydroxides. The scientific definition of corrosion can be shortened by simply explaining it as rusting. And this can be prevented by not letting oxidation occur.
How Can Corrosion Inhibitors Help?
Chemicals that are used as corrosion inhibitors are also referred to as oxygen scavengers and they work to remove existing corrosion and scales while also removing excess oxygen from closed loop water systems to prevent oxidation and future corrosion from occurring.
If you are looking for a chemical supplier to provide you with high-quality corrosion inhibitors in bulk, Ecolink can help. At Ecolink we offer several different bulk options for corrosion inhibitors and oxygen scavengers that can be used to keep your water processing systems in healthy working order, including our newest corrosion and scale inhibitor, Boiler Guard. If you need help deciding on the best chemicals for your particular applications, our skilled team of chemists and experts can help.

What is an Oxygen Scavenger
/in Oxygen Scavengers/by Industrial DegreasersTo answer the question “what is an oxygen scavenger?”, it is important to understand that an oxygen scavenger is a product comprising one or more reactive compounds that when combined with oxygen, will reduce or completely remove oxygen in liquids. These chemicals are often used in different water treatment applications to remove oxygen from large water cooling systems, boilers, and more to prevent corrosion and debris build-up.
What Is An Oxygen Scavenger & How Do They Work?
Oxygen scavengers are comprised of natural compounds designed to react with oxygen in order to eliminate it (oxygen).
In boilers and water treatment applications, these chemicals are added to the systems to reduce or remove any oxygen that may be present. This will help to prevent the build-up of corrosion and scales within these systems, keeping hoses and valves clear for proper function.
Ecolink provides a variety of high-quality, bulk oxygen scavengers for boilers, water treatment systems, water cooling, HVAC, and more. If you need help finding the best oxygen scavengers for your needs, our skilled team of chemists and experts can help!

Anti Foaming Agents – What are they and why do they matter?
/in Anti Foaming Agents/by Industrial DegreasersUnderstanding what anti foaming agents are and how they differ from de-foaming agents is the first step in deciding which kind of product might suit your needs.
How is foam created? Foam is formed or generated by the presence of gas or air and by the agitation of fluids (liquids) through stirring, shaking, mixing, boiling, evacuating (sucking), and filling under high speed conditions.
Typically, anti foaming agents and defoamers are used in manufacturing industries, some of which may include applications like:
Ecolink provides a variety of anti foaming agents that can be used across a number of industries. Products like our Foam Boss, which is a white, opaque soluble (alkaline) liquid that acts as both a defoamer and anti foaming agent in solution form that prevents the formation of foam and also removes foam.
