In the paper industry with a long history, defoamers play a crucial role as indispensable production aids. This article aims to provide readers with a basic overview of papermaking defoamers, including their definition, importance, and role in the papermaking process.

Papermaking defoamer is a chemical additive specially designed to reduce or eliminate harmful foam generated in the process of papermaking. These foam may be caused by the air in the slurry, the gas generated by chemical additive reaction or improper operation, which will seriously affect the quality and production efficiency of paper.

Therefore, the rational use of papermaking defoamers is of great significance for ensuring product quality, improving production efficiency, and reducing energy consumption.

Control the generation of foam and maintain the stability of slurry. Improve the uniformity and smoothness of paper. Reduce downtime during the production process and improve production efficiency. Reduce energy consumption and improve production environment.
