TEGO defoamers for architectural coatings make it possible

The new TEGO Foamex series 10 to 34 from Evonik enables customers to concentrate on the essentials: developing innovative architectural coatings.

Foam formation during production and application is a common problem with architectural coatings that takes up a great deal of time in the development of innovations. Low-VOC, ecolabel-compliant and efficient: The new defoamers reduce production times, define filling capacity more precisely and improve the appearance and performance of architectural coatings with minimal investment.

Developers also need to find out about new raw materials and changes in the law. That means more work for the laboratories, as the necessary know-how rarely comes in a package. This is now set to change because the new series of TEGO Foamex 10 to 34 defoamers has been developed to meet all requirements pertinent to architectural coatings.

"In launching this new series of TEGO defoamers, we are solving an annoying, time-consuming problem for our customers,” explains Daniel Brünink, Director Global Marketing for Decorative Coatings. "In many cases, we, therefore, decide with the customer which defoamer is the best fit for their particular situation.” www.tego.de
