Fatty Alcohol Defoamers & Deaerators (Alcohol Based Antifoam)

High-Performance Degassing for Paper Machines

INVINO® fatty alcohol defoamers are engineered non-silicone emulsion concentrates formulated specifically for interfacial degassing and macro-foam suppression inside papermaking machine wet-end white water systems. Often documented as organic alcohol-based deaerators, these stable active systems accelerate the coalescence of entrained micro-air bubbles trapped within dense stock fiber slurries without affecting downstream fiber bonding parameters.

Unlike conventional organic silicone alternatives, our high-molecular fatty alcohol series maintains full compatibility with rosin or AKD sizing metrics. This independent phase trait renders it ideal for the production of sensitive paper grades, specialized packaging cardboards, and liners requiring precise wet-strength resin additions. They secure excellent water-dispersibility profiles, optimizing dynamic drainage rates across forming fabrics while reinforcing uniform sheet formation.

Diagnostic Test Method
  1. Preparation: Charge a clean 500 mL graduated measuring cylinder with 200 mL of the compiled paper mill white water matrix. Calibrate and fix the loop temperature boundary at exactly 45°C throughout the trial.
  2. Bubbling Process: Initiate the continuous gas induction loop until the generated fluid slurry macro-foam layer climbs to the 250 mL volume horizon.
  3. Defoamer Application: Introduce exactly one calibrated drop of the target fatty alcohol polymer emulsion into the active bubbling cylinder top boundary.
  4. Observation: Audit the rapid knockdown kinetics and record the precise time intervals required for the gas-liquid interface to recede to baseline limits.
Operational Testing Notes:
  • Maintain strict uniform thermostat boundaries across all test batches to insulate raw metrics from ambient room temperature shifts.
  • Follow the automated second-by-second monitoring logs to map the true deaerating persistence boundaries without data distortion fields.

Frequently Asked Questions about Fatty Alcohol Defoamer

Is this product 100% silicone-free? Why is that important?

A. Yes. INVINO® fatty alcohol deaerators are manufactured entirely free from silicone fluid fractions or hydrophobic siloxane structures. This removes the hazard of silicone oil drift spots forming on the paper sheet fabric, securing continuous web sizing and downstream coating distribution uniformity.

Does it only eliminate surface macro-foam? What about entrained gas?

A. The formulated higher fatty alcohol emulsions exert dual kinetic mechanics: they trigger immediate interfacial collapse of surface macro-foam layers, while actively accelerating the coalescence and escape of micro-bubbles trapped inside the turbulent stock pulp matrix.

Will it generate chemical deposits on machine felts or wire sections?

A. No. Elevated chemical water-dispersibility parameters isolate the active particles from agglomeration tendencies. The components migrate through backwater white water channels without precipitating, ensuring fabric lines and wet-end wires remain clear of build-up.

What are the precise system temperature tolerance boundaries?

A. Operating limits match specific modification baselines. INVINO-5030 is balanced for standard 35–45°C systems; INVINO-5045 targets 40–55°C high-recycling closed-loops; while INVINO-5060 maintains phase structure inside extreme 50–60°C white water channels.

Why does the chemical composition thicken or layer during cold weather storage?

A. High-solid fatty alcohol emulsions undergo phase orientation characteristics under extended cold storage thresholds. Slight viscosity spikes or superficial layering represent thermodynamic equilibrium features; mild physical agitation fully restores batch consistency without losing bubble control metrics.

Process Conditions

Track closed-loop white water thermal baselines, slurry alkaline thresholds, wire speed agitation shear, and fiber retention characteristics when choosing your model grade.

• Factor: Align emulsion droplet distribution directly against specific plant dynamic parameters.
Compatibility Check

Confirm matrix compatibility with wet-end sizing configurations (AKD/Rosin) and retention polymers. Complete localized cylinder trials before mass pumping to guarantee zero sheet blemishes or surfactant conflict boundaries.

• Factor: Verify active alcohol dispersion balance across local aggregate pulp lots.
Dosage Baseline

Initiate dosage mapping indicators at 0.05kg to 0.3kg per metric ton of air-dry paper assets inside standard newsprint/cardboard loops; adjust thresholds under laboratory diagnostic oversight.

• Factor: Control the overall consumption manifest via gradual micro-metering procedures.
