Defoamers Market
REPORT DESCRIPTION
Defoamers Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 - 2023
Defoamers, also known as anti-foaming agents, are chemical agents that restrain the formation of foam. A
unique defoamer composition is made up of concentrated active ingredients such as a polyhydric alcohol fatty
acid ester and a polyether surfactant. The composition is advantageous for foam control and drainage
enhancement in applications such as groundwood/mechanical pulp systems, paper and pulp processes,
secondary fiber systems, general wet-end foam control, and bleach plants/screen rooms.
Rising demand from various applications for defoamers is pushing the growth of the overall defoamers market.
According to Transparency Market Research, the global defoamers market is anticipated to grow at a 4.5%
CAGR between 2015 and 2023 to reach US$4,107.5 million in 2023 from a market value of US$2,764 million
in 2014.

Why are Defoamers Preferred over Traditional Foams?
Foam poses many difficulties in the processing of pulp during the manufacture of paper products. It is
consistently a problem for various industries, such as chemicals, especially during biochemical processes. It
hampers the flow of liquids and permits the transfer of oxygen. Most segments during the papermaking
process produce surface foam, which is extremely undesirable due to its harmful effects on the overall process
efficiency and the finished products.
Therefore, defoamers such as silicone oils are added to prevent foaming at the time of manufacturing.
Silicone-based defoamers are considered heavy-duty materials, as they are good at both releasing entrapped
air and cracking down surface foam. The silicone-based defoamer segment was the largest product segment
of the global defoamers market in 2014. It took up more than 40% of the global defoamers market.

Defoamers Market
Defoamers are typically insoluble in the foaming medium and possess surface active properties such as low
viscosity. Due to these properties, defoamers are widely used in various industries to control foam generated
during the production process and increase the total efficiency of the machines by destroying the excess foam
formed during the manufacturing activity.
Demand from Various End Users Expected to Boost Market Demand
Defoamers are widely used in paper recycling, waste disposal and processing, dishwashing detergents,
petroleum/petrochemical, and cleaning processes such as recycle-plastic cleaning, metal-cleaning, and printed
circuit board cleaning. Continuous innovation in product and technology, coupled with increasing use of
defoamers in various areas of industries and commercial applications, is a vital factor driving the defoamers
market.

Defoaming coating additives are the basic organic chemical raw materials broadly used in the automotive,
architectural, wood, and furniture industries. The defoaming coating additives market is anticipated to witness
explosive growth over the 2015-2023 forecast period. Some of the key features driving demand for defoaming
coating additives are their superior quality, environment-friendliness, as well as high efficiency.
Given its use in various manufacturing processes, the market for defoamers is positively growing across the
globe. Influx of innovative and high-performance defoamers, increasing rate of research and development
activities, and technological advancements are fueling the use of defoamers in potential industrial applications.
Owing to strict government regulations in North America and Europe, these regions are projected to exhibit a
moderate increase in demand for defoamers by 2023. While growth of the defoamers market is high in Asia
Pacific, the demand for defoamers in Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa is likely to be sluggish during
the forecast period.
