Foam troubles textile printing, dyeing, and printing paste making. Too much foam reduces equipment capacity. It increases cleaning frequency. It may also cause uneven color, color spots, and uneven paste application. Worse still, ordinary defoamers only work for a short time. Foam soon comes back. They treat the symptom, not the cause.
1. Why does foam form in textile processes?
In desizing, scouring, and bleaching, high temperature and high alkali conditions create stable foam from surfactants and decomposed sizing materials. In dyeing, leveling agents and wetting agents bring in air during high‑speed circulation. This forms fine, dense foam. In printing paste making, binders and thickeners mix with mechanical stirring. Foam builds up and blocks screens, causing poor print definition. Water hardness, pH changes, and poor compatibility with previous auxiliary residues can also increase foam. They may even cause oil spotting or precipitation.
2. Core advantages of Lianzhuang defoaming agent
Lianzhuang technology developed TEXNOLOGY®3003 defoaming agent to solve these problems. It is made for textile processes with too much foam. It helps mills say goodbye to foam troubles.
Excellent dispersion, fast defoaming, and long‑lasting foam control
TEXNOLOGY®3003 uses a modified polysiloxane non‑ionic formula. It is a white emulsion that dissolves easily in water. It disperses very well and does not cause oil spots. It quickly penetrates foam films and breaks their stability. This gives fast defoaming. At the same time, it controls foam for a long time. It greatly reduces foam reformation.
Good stability, wide compatibility
TEXNOLOGY®3003 defoaming agent works well in a wide pH range. Its performance does not fail due to pH changes or high temperature. Its non‑ionic structure works well with many anionic and non‑ionic auxiliaries. It avoids oil spots and precipitation. It keeps the process stable.
Safe, efficient, and cost‑saving
TEXNOLOGY®3003 does not burn or explode. It does not irritate the skin. It is harmless to humans. You only need a small amount. It gives strong and lasting defoaming. This lowers chemical consumption and reduces wastewater treatment difficulty. It also eases the environmental burden.
TEXNOLOGY®3003 works not only in textile desizing, scouring, bleaching, dyeing, and printing paste making (preventing color spots and screen blockage). It is also widely used in water‑based auxiliary processing, biological fermentation, food, pesticides, paper making, detergents, adhesive manufacturing, and wastewater treatment.
