Antifoaming Agent Market Emerging Factors, Future Demands, and Key Players
Global antifoaming agent market is estimated to witness substantial growth in the coming years due to increase in industrial applications and growing demand from developing economies. Antifoaming agent or the defoamer is a chemical additive that prevents the foam formation in the liquids of industrial processes. In most industries, antifoaming agents are used to fasten the production processes. It is used in a wide range of detergents, such as dishwasher to reduce foaming, sprite, Coca-Cola, chicken nuggets to reduce effervescence or effusion while preparation and serving. In pharmaceutical industry, antifoaming agents are used to reduce bloating.
The reasons for the growth of antifoaming agent market include rise in adoption of solvent-based and water-based formulations, integration of industrial processes in the food segment, growth in the applications of antifoaming agents in several industries, expansion of pharmaceutical industry that highly demands antifoaming agents, potential demand from agriculture industry especially in developing economies. Additionally, increase in number of environmental issues and regulations concerning the release of emissions from various industries and curb on VOC emissions is driving the market growth. However, lack of awareness of industrial use of antifoaming agents is hampering the antifoaming agent market.
Increasing use of antifoaming agents in bioprocesses is an emerging trend in the market. Nonetheless, advancements in technologies in performance and compositions of antifoaming agents is expected to offer lucrative opportunities to the market. Strict rules regarding toxic and heavy chemicals is challenging the industry players.
