BYK-012

BYK 012 is a VOC-free defoamer additive recommended for aqueous coatings. As a polymer-based defoamer, BYK 012 effectively destroys foam at very low dosages. It is silicone-free and suitable for pH ranges from 3-12, making it well-suited for advanced material coating applications. BYK 012 exhibits optimal performance as a defoamer for water-based coating systems. Its low usage levels help formulators achieve VOC-compliance. The additive's stability to acids and alkalis also makes it compatible with various resin technologies used in advanced material coatings. BYK 012 is especially effective at preventing foaming during production and application of coatings. Its compatibility with water-based systems eliminates negative interactions that can occur with silicone or oil-based defoamers. Formulators of advanced material coatings benefit from the reliable defoaming of BYK 012 at the lowest addition rates.
