Defoamers Market Size and Forecasts (2021 - 2031), Global and Regional Share, Trends, and Growth Opportunity Analysis

MARKET OVERVIEW

Defoamers are chemical additives or anti-foaming agents used in the industrial process to reduce the formation of foam and industrial process liquids. Anti-foam agent and defoamer are terms that are often used interchangeably. The defoamers eliminate the foam, and anti-formers prevent the formation of the foam. Defoamer is used in paper industry to decrease the formation of foam while manufacturing papers. Silicones are widely used as defoamers and antifoams in a wide range of food products. Defoamer is used in fermentation, fruit and vegetable washing and processing, and also in meat and poultry processing to fight foam caused by organic compounds present in the facilities. Defoamers are widely used in paints, ink, fisheyes, and coatings to prevent defects such as popping, cratering and depression. Defoamer is widely used in producing paint and coatings as it eliminates foam caused by mixing, grinding, and chemical reactions involved in the production of the product.

MARKET DYNAMICS

The defoamers market is expected to grow substantially in the upcoming years. In the paper packing industry, it is assumed that an increase in the application of paper-based products will also drive the market during the forecast period. The defoamers help to reduce the number of broken papers, which helps in machine's high performance. The defoamers are used to improve the quality of fiber. Owing to wide application scope of defoamers, the key players in the market are constantly investing in R&D activities and product launch. For instance, in October 2021, BASF launched new defoamer for adhesives, paper coating applications, and functional packaging. This defoamer also complies with major food contact regulations. In April 2021, Evonik launched a new defoamer and dispersants for architectural paints. These initiatives by the key players in the market contributes to the growth of the market in the coming years.

However, the defoamers market may be hindered by factors such as the high cost of production and quality control. Implementing, developing, and manufacturing in various industries can be expensive. Additionally, in the industrial process, high levels of antifoaming agents affect the products and cause side effects that can hamper the defoamers market. Due to this, several governments have strict policies concerning defoamers.
