DELTA FC® 1020

DELTA FC® 1020 by Delta Specialties is silicone-free defoamer. It prevents foam formation during production, filling and application. It demonstrates no negative influence on inter-coat adhesion when overcoated. It possesses strong incompatibility which results in strong defoaming and hence the influence upon the transparency of clear systems and upon cratering must be evaluated. It reduces the accumulation of foam in the ink pan or reservoir during the printing process. It is highly recommended in the application systems such as thermoplastic acrylics, nitrocellulose, acid-curing wood finishes, unsaturated polyesters and cold-curing epoxy systems. It can be used in solvent-based pigment bases and printing inks. It is particularly effective in nitrocellulose-based systems. DELTA FC® 1020 may be used in gravure and flexographic printing. Recommended dosage level is 0.05 to 0.7% for coatings and 0.1-0.7% for printing inks. It has a shelf life of 5 years.

DELTA FC® 1522M

DELTA FC® 1522M is an effective defoamer based on a mixture hydrophobic components in hydrocarbon carrier. It possesses a long-lasting defoaming effect in different synthetic latex and emulsion systems based on styrene-acrylic, styrene-butadiene, acrylic and polyvinyl acetate. It controls the foaming tendency of surfactants in water-based coatings and inks formulations (mill-base and let-down) without affecting the final film properties. It provides very good storage stability. It is used in coatings and printing ink. Recommended dosage level is 0.1-1.0% on total formulation weight. DELTA FC® 1522M has a shelf life of 2 years.
