Anti-foaming agents are chemical additives, that eliminates or reduces unwanted foam development during industrial processes. The terms defoamer or anti-foaming agents are often used interchangeably in this field. Foams are the substances formed by trapping air/gas pockets in a liquid or solid. It causes severe problems such as inefficiency in the process, defects in surface coatings, storage instability, and several other losses.
