BYK-1799

BYK 1799 is a highly effective silicone-based defoamer additive that is particularly suitable for solvent-borne, high-solid, and solvent-free coating systems. BYK 1799 displays excellent spontaneous defoaming properties and is effective against both macro- and microfoams. Even at low dosages, BYK 1799 has powerful defoaming capabilities, making it well-suited for pigmented and matted coating formulations that have a tendency toward foam stabilization. BYK 1799 is characterized by its high effectiveness in high-solid and solvent-free systems like epoxy, polyurethane, and polyaspartic acid esters coatings. These types of coatings find wide application in the Advanced Materials industry for applications like protective and architectural coatings. BYK 1799 helps overcome defoaming challenges in such technologically advanced coating formulations through its spontaneous and powerful defoaming properties at low additive levels.
