Did you know that defoamers come in silicone and non-silicone types, each with their unique capabilities in managing foam in lubricants? Foam can hamper heat transfer, reduce lubrication effectiveness, and potentially result in system instability. Silicone-based defoamers effectively tackle severe foaming, while non-silicone defoamers are typically used where potential silicone contamination is a concern. Both play a vital role in preserving optimal lubricant performance. At Valorem Chemicals, we offer both silicone and non-silicone defoamers, ensuring your lubricants maintain their top performance irrespective of the application. Keep foam in check with Valorem!
