Market Overview:
The global defoamer for injection molding market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for electronic communications, furniture, and automobiles across the globe. In addition, the growing demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles is also contributing to the growth of this market. Furthermore, rising awareness about environmental protection is also propelling the growth of this market. However, volatility in raw material prices may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A defoamer is a material that is used to decrease or prevent the formation of foam in a liquid. It is often an additive that is added to the liquid mixture, and it helps to control the expansion of gas bubbles that can form during the manufacturing process. Defoamers are important for injection molding because they help to produce parts with a smooth surface finish. Without defoamers, parts may have visible air pockets or other surface defects.
Eliminate Bubbles:
The eliminate bubbles (eliminate) technique is used to reduce the foam in injection molding. It works by creating a super-saturated solution of polymer and liquid resin, which results in reduced foam formation during the process of injection molding. The elimination process can be carried out with or without heat, but it's most effective when done with heat.
Suppress Bubbles:
Suppress bubbles are gas-filled microspheres used to reduce the formation of foam during injection molding. They are added in the molten metal or plastic feedstock before it is injected into a mold cavity and act as a nucleation agent, thereby reducing the foam formation. The product also prevents metal particles from becoming airborne, which can cause safety issues during handling and transportation of finished products.
The global suppress bubbles.
Application Insights:
The defoamer for injection molding is used in various applications including automobile, furniture, electronic communications and others. The automobile application segment accounted for the largest market share of over 30% in 2017.
