Metal cutting liquid contains fully-synthetic cutting fluid, semi-synthetic cutting fluid, emulsified cutting fluid, and oil cutting fluid. It’s used to cool and lubricate the metal processing. Due to the high shear and functional additives, the foam is contributed. The unwanted foam can cause reservoir overflows, unplanned downtime and equipment damage. As successfully cases, the silicone antifoaming agents have proven their good compatibility with their system and persistent foam suppression performance. Brochure: Defoamer for metal cutting liquid

Foam Control Solutions For Paint, Adhesive, And ink In paint and ink, foam and entrained air can be introduced a coating and ink by stirring and shearing during pigments, polymer grinding and package.  Foam can contribute to surface defects, pinhole, eye fish, and final print quality. Our portfolio of defoamers includes mineral oil, silicone, synthetic non silicone defoamers for those applications. Brochure: Defoamer for paints and inks

Industrial cleaning has characteristics of saving energy, saving water and improving product quality. However, in the cleaning process, foam can the main reason for the plant to stop. Defoamer as an economic product, has an important role in industrial cleaning. Defoamer is widely used in: beer bottle cleaning, circuit board cleaning, electroplating solution & electroplating cleaning, metal surface cleaning, steel plate cleaning, spray cleaning etc.. Rickman has a line of defoamer solutions to help customers to solve foam questions. Brochure: Defoamer for industrial cleaning

Foam control agents in a wide range of applications For many industries, excessive foam is a problem. It can cause vessels to overflow, interfere with processes and packaging, waste material and damage equipment. Defoamers and Antifoams prevent unwanted foam formation and help solve these challenges efficiently. Our lineup ranges from products based on silicone, polyether, compound, mineral oil, powder and other silicone free defoamers. In leather edge oil process, it is mainly used for trimming or modifying the edge of leather coating. Leather edge oil is mainly composed of polyurethane and acrylic acid contained in resin. Reaction with acrylic and alkaline fillers to produce carbon dioxide bubbles. The main performance of the foam is particularly rich in fine bubbles when dispersed and mixed. Harm of foam in leather process: 1 Material degradation: foam can trap moisture within the leather, which lead to the deterioration of material. 2 Discoloration: The chemicals in the foam can react with the leather causinng discoloration and staining. 3 Odor:   if the environment is damp,   the foam can creat a bad odor even after the foam is removed. 4 Difficulty in cleaning   Our products:    RK-707     RK-900N      RK-30N     RK-100S      

In the desulfurization system, the concentration of flue gas dust is too high, and the impurities containing a large number of inert substances enter the slurry of the absorber, resulting in the increase of heavy metal content, which further resulting in the increase of the surface tension of the slurry. Then the slurry surface appears foaming, and results in the overflow of the absorber, therefore defoamer is necessary for desulfuration. Here are antifoam solutions for desulfuration process in Rickman company. Please kindly find more products: RK-400P is a 100% active silicone free antifoam with great defoaming and foam control performance in wastewater treatment and desulfurization etc. 400s is a highly efficient defoamer for mining, oil and gas, industrial cleaning, agriculture etc. RK-700P is a silicone free based defoamer with breaking foam quickly in many industries. RK-8636 is a innovative silicone defoamer, which is ready to used in widely applications, such as textile, water treatment, fermentation, PCB cleaning and desulfuration. RK-0036 is a high antifoaming defoamer with 30% content. Low dosage can achieve optimized result in  textile printing, general industrial, cooling water treatment, PCB cleaning, adhesive, glove production and desulfuration.

Glass of water is commonly known as the car windshield cleaning fluid. It needs to add all kinds of additives. Various environmental additives and surfactants in the process of mixing will form a large number of foam. Too much foam affects the quality of glass water and affects the users’ sight during using. RK-7470M is a silicone based defoaming agent, worked in full synthetic and emulsion cutting liquid system, other circular shear system, fountain solution, and water glass. RK-700P is a silicone free based defoamer with breaking foam quickly in many industries.

Mining exploitation is an important part of national economic development, promoting the industrial development. However, in the mining, we often encounter the problem of foam, it mainly due to the ability of foaming substances in the mineral processing improved, raw materials, added additives caused by. If the foam is not eliminated in time, it will affect the quality of the mineral, the benefit and the cost of the mining. 400s is a highly efficient defoamer for mining, oil and gas, industrial cleaning, agriculture etc. RK-360 is a silicone antifoaming agent, mainly used in mining.

In the latex gloves production, because of the addition of other additives such as wetting agent dispersing agent, thickening agent, emulsifier, to produce chemical reaction, resulting in a large number of foams. The non-standard mixing during production or the entry of gas during high-speed mixing will further lead to the increase of foam and bring a lot of adverse effects to the production. Please find more antifoam products: RK-0036 is a high antifoaming defoamer with 30% content. Low dosage can achieve optimized result in textile printing, general industrial, cooling water treatment, PCB cleaning, adhesive, glove production etc.

In the process of polymer emulsion polymerization and suspension polymerization, due to the introduction of the polymer emulsifier or suspending agent, it causes a lot of foams, which will result in low production efficiency, product quality decline, but also lead to low molecular content exceed the standard. Defoamer can destroy the membrane elasticity and lead to the bubble burst. Defoamer diffuses to the gas-liquid interface after adding, and the surfactant with foam stabilizing effect is difficult to recover the ability of membrane elasticity, so as to achieve the effect of eliminating or controlling foam. Here are antifoam solutions in Rickman company: RK-30S is a 30% active silicone antifoaming agent. It’s highly efficiently antifoaming in textile printing, construction, industrial effluent treatment and emulsion polymerization. RK-1107 is a 100% active defoamer,specially designed for emulsion adhesive. RK-207 is a silicone free, 100% active antifoaming agent. It works efficiently in emulsion polymerization, suspension polymerization.
