What is defoamer

Introduction: you may not know very well about defoaming agents Let's introduce Xiaobian Xiaobian to introduce what is defoamer What is defoamer? What is defoamer? Defoamer, also known as defoaming agent, is to reduce surface tension during food processing, inhibit foam production or eliminate froth food additives There are seven defoamers permitted to be used in China, including emulsified silicone oil, high carbon alcohol fatty acid ester complex, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene pentaerythritol ether, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropanol amine ether, polyoxypropylene glycerin ether and polyoxypropylene polyoxyethylene glycerin ether, polydimethylsiloxane, etc In the process of industrial production, a lot of harmful bubbles will be generated, and defoamer should be added It is widely used to remove harmful foam produced in latex, textile sizing, food fermentation, biological medicine, pesticide, coating, petrochemical, paper making, industrial cleaning and other industries Can defoamers be used? The main ingredients of food grade defoamers include calcium carbonate, sorbitan fatty acid ester, silicone oil, preservatives, etc Of course, there will be a certain amount of short chain fatty acids in general defoamers Food defoamer is specially designed for defoaming in food processing industry, also known as DSA-5 defoamer It is a key defoamer in China's food industry, especially in the background of strict control of silicon residue and prohibition of polyether defoamer in many countries, it has more application value Food defoamer is widely used in bean products, dairy industry, pharmaceutical industry, dairy industry, beverage industry, sugar industry, soybean protein extraction, soy sauce and vinegar brewing, cigarette holder adhesive and other food industries because of its unique advantages such as no impact on the taste of products, rapid defoaming, long-lasting foam suppression, and defoaming efficiency up to 96-98% Due to its superior performance, it is also used in synthetic latex, metal cleaning and other industries Therefore, defoamer is edible Defoamer plays an important role in the field of food processing Defoamer is very helpful for harmful foam Therefore, we need to know more about food additives and know more about defoamer knowledge, which will help us analyze more food safety problems Editor in charge: he xianrob
