Action mechanism of polysiloxane defoamer
The representative defoaming mechanisms of polysiloxane mainly include "bridging spreading" mechanism, "bridging dehumidifying" mechanism, and "spreading liquid entrainment" mechanism. The "bridging spreading" mechanism mainly starts from the basic point of "polysiloxane has a relatively low tension and is easy to spread on the liquid film." It emphasizes that defoamer droplets are prone to deformation, but this theory cannot explain the defoaming differences between individual polysiloxanes and mixtures of polysiloxanes and solid ions as defoamers. The "bridging dehumidification" mechanism is mainly based on the hydrophobicity of polysiloxanes themselves, but the defoaming effect of polysiloxanes with high viscosity cannot be well explained. The "spreading liquid entrainment" mechanism cannot be confirmed because some facts indicate that polysiloxanes sometimes do not spread on the surface of the foam film, but can also break the foam.

From the physical point of view, the methods to eliminate foam mainly include placing baffle or filter screen, mechanical agitation, static electricity, freezing, heating, steam, radiation, high-speed centrifugation, pressure reduction, high-frequency vibration, instantaneous discharge and ultrasound (acoustic liquid control). These methods promote the gas transmission rate at both ends of the liquid film and the liquid discharge of the bubble film to varying degrees, making the stability factor of foam less than the attenuation factor, As a result, the number of foam gradually decreased. However, the common disadvantage of these methods is that their use is strongly restricted by environmental factors, and the North Macedonia rate is not high. The advantages are environmental protection and high reuse rate.
