Regarding the design of the mixing tank to prevent bubbles from forming after materials are added?
Thread Content
Failing to return the material to the mixing tank will cause a large number of bubbles to form; is there a way to improve the design?
Please, the original poster, explain what type of mixer is currently being used and the conditions at the site
A defoaming slurry can be installed on the upper part of the stirring shaft
What component is the defoaming slurry?
I work in the paint industry. Can microbubbles generated by surfactants be eliminated using defoaming agents?
Reply to 3# **Hi, I work in the paint industry. The viscosity of the paints is not high; the bubbles are mainly microbubbles formed by surfactants. Can defoaming agents be used to eliminate them? Or what would be the effect? :handshake
Maybe add an antifoaming agent; that should solve the problem. For microbubbles, an antifoaming paddle does not have a significant effect.
Add an antifoaming agent to the material; using an antifoaming paddle during mixing will suffice
