Innovative fluorosilicone additive for defect-free foam control

Is foam generation causing problems with the production, filling and application of your solvent-based or radiation-curable paints, inks and coatings? Are your high-solids formulations causing you particular trouble? Do you see more defects and haze and gloss issues resulting from the addition of your foam control agents? And do you have to use several different additives to control foam generation in your different solventborne, solventless and radiation-curable coatings? Consider DOWSIL™ 100F Additive.
