DOWSIL™ 8590 Additive is a self-dispersible, 100 percent active silicone antifoam compound combining good compatibility and good defoaming efficiency, enabling foam control at low temperature in waterborne coatings and inks systems without impacting surface gloss. DOWSIL™ 8590 Additive can be used as sole defoamer for both grind and let down stages. Usage level can be 50 to 70 percent less than conventional defoamers for comparable or better performance. view less
