[Case Study of Trouble Improvement] Foaming in the Coating Process

Defoaming for All Types of Coating Liquids! Eliminates foam and repellency even in formulations with different components!

Case Summary 【Challenges】 Foaming during coating caused streaks, leading to a decline in paper quality. Excessive addition of defoamer to control foaming resulted in oil spots on the paper surface. 【Approach】 To address these issues, we conducted a combination of foam suppression tests and repellency (wettability) tests to identify the most suitable defoamer. 【Results】 The optimized defoamer reduced oil spots, eliminated streak formation, and improved repellency, resulting in better paper quality and cost reduction. Example Overview Problem: ・Foaming in coating liquids caused streaks and degraded paper quality. ・Excessive defoamer dosage led to oil spot formation.
