Evonik Coating Additives has introduced two innovative defoamers, TEGO Foamex 16 and TEGO Foamex 11. These new additives are designed to improve the sustainability and performance of waterborne architectural coatings.
TEGO Foamex 16 is a siloxane-based defoamer concentrate that provides an exceptional balance of defoaming efficiency and compatibility, particularly for low to medium PVC coatings. TEGO Foamex 11, a siloxane-based defoamer emulsion, is optimized for high PVC coatings. With 15 percent active ingredient, it is a highly effective, more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional mineral oil-based defoamers.
Both products demonstrate Evonik's strong commitment to environmental responsibility, as they have very low VOC and SVOC content and do not contain solvents or mineral oils. In addition, TEGO Foamex 16 contains 25 percent bio-based material, reducing the environmental impact of coatings and inks without sacrificing quality or performance.
