Dow (Dow Corning) Silicone

Silicone Additive

Additive for Surface Control

In Paint and ink industry, there is a partial difference in surface tension on the surface of the paint film, resulting in a number of problems. The silicone additives are dispersed on the surface of the paint film to improve the difference in surface tension, solve these problems, and improve the properties of the paint film surface.

Antifoam

Silicone antifoam eliminate bubbles in the manufacturing process without affecting the properties. The antifoaming performance and persistence are better than organic antifoams, so even in small quantities, it is more efficient and economical. It also has excellent effect in destroying or deaerating air bubbles in a wide variety of areas, such as hot and cold, water and solvent, base and acidic solutions. In addition to the antifoams, a variety of silicone polymers are produced and sold for water.
