Silicone-free defoamer to prevent foam formation during production, filling, and application of solvent-based coatings. BYK®-052 displays spontaneous defoaming properties and demonstrates no negative influence on intercoat adhesion when overcoated. BYK®-052 is more incompatible than BYK®-051 and is therefore used as the standard defoamer for many solvent-based coatings. It displays higher defoaming action than BYK®-051, especially in non-polar systems. Due to its stronger incompatibility, the influence upon the transparency of clear systems and upon cratering must be evaluated. It is used in industrial, automotive, protective, architectural, wood and furniture and can/coil coatings and printing inks. Solution of foam destroying polymers, silicone-free. Used in industrial, automotive, protective, architectural, wood and furniture and can/coil coatings and printing inks. Prevents foam formation during production.
