FoamStar A 12 Cognis Defoamers / Anti-Foaming Agents Acrylics/ Acrylates ADHESIVE FoamStar® A12 represents a novel series of defoamers based on new defoamer chemistry developed and patented by Cognis. It is the first new defoamer chemistry in over 30 years. FoamStar® is a defoaming molecule that defoams by a different mechanism. Unlike conventional defoamers (mineral oil or silicone), FoamStar® defoams on a molecular level. It also has wetting properties not found in other conventional defoamers. FoamStar® A12 utilizes the FoamStar® molecule compounded in an enhanced mineral-oil system. FoamStar® A12's advantages are: Use 1/3 - 1/2 Less Defoamer Save at least 20 % on Defoamer Costs Non-Separating & Non Settling Extremely Effective in Acrylic and Vinyl Acrylic adhesives Very Fast bubble-break versus conventional defoamers Effective against Microfoam Defoaming molecule compounded in an enhanced mineral-oil system. Defoams on a molecular level. Used in acrylic and vinyl acrylic adhesives. Provides very fast bubble-break versus conventional defoamers and effectiveness against microfoam.
