BYK 1610 is a VOC-free silicone-based additive that provides effective foam control and defoaming properties. BYK 1610 acts as a cost-effective replacement for mineral oil-based defoamers. It can be used across a wide viscosity range from 35-70% and is suitable for aqueous formulations. BYK 1610 supports uniform and bubble-free application of coatings. Its non-silicone formulation makes it an eco-friendly choice for projects where low VOC emissions are required. BYK 1610 prevents foam formation during the mixing and application stages, resulting in a smooth, defect-free surface finish on dried films.
