Special features and benefits
BYK-1818 is a highly effective defoamer for solvent-borne and solvent-free coating systems. Even at low dosing levels, optimal and spontaneous defoaming can be achieved.Recommended levels
0.1–1% additive (as supplied) based on the total formulation.
The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. The optimum dosage should be determined by application-related test series.
Incorporation and processing instructions
To achieve optimal defoaming, the defoamer should be added to the millbase. If it is incorporated later, sufficient shear forces must be applied to ensure a good defoamer distribution and to prevent crater formation.
