TEGO® Foamex 805

TEGO® Foamex 805 by Evonik is a silica-free, defoamer for waterborne formulations. It is used universally in clear and pigmented formulations. It prevents foam formation during production, air occlusions and destroys pre-existing foam. It possesses the greatest possible effectiveness and compatibility especially when added to the let-down and in clear coats, owing to their optimized particle size. It is highly compatible (minimized risk of surface defects). It is suitable for pure acrylic emulsion, styrene-acrylic emulsion, vinyl and EVA emulsions, PU dispersions and hybrid systems. TEGO® Foamex 805 finds application in wood and furniture-, parquet lacquers-, industrial-, plastic-, architectural-, leather-, car OEM and refinish coatings. It is also applicable in (overprint) varnishes, inkjet and printing inks. It has a shelf life of 6 months.
