Due to the formula, the degreaser is prone to a large amount of foam during use. Too much foam in the degreaser will not only affect the cleaning effect, but also increase the cleaning water and increase the cleaning cost. How to eliminate degreaser foam? It can be defoamed by purchasing a degreaser defoamer for degreaser. This article analyzes the causes and hazards of degreasing agent foaming, and gives the targeted defoaming solutions.
Causes of degreaser foaming
The degreasing agent is mainly composed of surface active agents, mainly including surface active agents and alkali builders. Therefore, foam problems are prone to occur during use.
1. Surfactant
Surfactant is the core component of degreaser. However, these substances tend to foam. After machine or artificial use, agitation, and mixing, the surfactant is chemically unstable, resulting in a large amount of foam. There is also a situation that the frequent changes in temperature cause changes in the air and gas flow and accelerate the generation of degreaser foam.
2. Alkali builders
The detergency builder means that it does not have the function of a surfactant, but when used together with a surfactant, it can improve the washing ability and obtain a better degreasing and cleaning effect with the degreasing agent.
Commonly used alkali builders are soda ash, sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate and sodium tripolyphosphate. Among them, sodium silicate and sodium tripolyphosphate can not only provide alkalinity, but also provide a certain emulsifying power, and are often used in various degreasing cleaning agents, especially in degreasing processes that are sensitive to alkali.

The hazards of a large amount of foam in the degreaser
1. A large amount of foam will interfere with the cleaning process and reduce the cleaning efficiency;
2. Too many bubbles, do not control, overflow will pollute the environment;
3. Influencing the cleaning effect, stains, oil spots, etc. appear on the surface of the workpiece;
4. Foam affects the discharge of sewage, and direct discharge will pollute the surrounding environment.
Degreasing agent and defoaming solution
Through the analysis of the degreaser components, the surfactants, alkali builders and other ingredients in the degreaser formulations can easily lead to a large amount of foam during the use of the degreaser. Foam is not only difficult to clean, but also affects the efficiency of oil removal. The foam can be controlled by adding defoamers.
Antifoaming agent is a kind of chemical additives. Good quality antifoaming agent has good defoaming and anti-foaming effect, and the dosage is small, and the addition cost is low. Generally, it will be added in degreasing agent, degreasing powder, and cleaning agent. . However, there are many types of defoamers, and defoamers are still a class of highly targeted substances, so whether the purchase of degreasing agents or defoamers is targeted directly affects the defoaming effect.
