About Low Foam Surfactants
Low Foam Surfactants are used as cleaning agents mainly due to their strong washing performance and reduced foaming properties. They are derived from natural and synthetic alcohols. These surfactants offers benefits such as foaming & foam stability, emulsification, wetting, and dispersion. They are mostly used in mild alkaline or neutral spray cleaners and are ideal for ideal for low- to no-foam applications. Increasing use of non-ionic low foam surfactants in applications such as hard surface cleaners, industrial processes, and household detergents, etc.is expected to drive the market size in coming years.
