MARKET INTRODUCTION
Foam control agents are additives used in chemical industries to control the formation of foam in liquids. In many industrial applications, the formation of excessive foam is highly undesirable as it can interfere with different processes and packaging, cause damages to materials and equipment, and cause vessels to overflow. Flow control agents find applications in water treatment, food and beverage industry, bioethanol production, laundry detergents, oil and gas production, paper and pulp, and paints, coatings, and ink formulations. Polypropylene glycols (PPGs), EO/PO copolymers, polyglycol, stearates, and polydimethylsiloxanes are commonly employed by various industries to tackle the foam problem.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The use of foam control agents for food processing in the food and feed industry is expected to create a significant demand for the foam control agents in the forecast period. Foam control agents are extensively used in the food and feed industry in applications such as sugar production, potato processing, fermentation, meat, seafood, poultry washing, and animal feed. In the potato industry, foam control agents are used in industrial processes in which potatoes are converted into french fries, chips, and crisps. Foam control agents are used during the washing and cutting process of potatoes. The rising global demand for food and the growing importance of foam control agents in the food processing industries is likely to create lucrative opportunities for the foam control agent businesses across the world. Other industries such as pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, personal care and hygiene, adhesives, and plastics are also expected to generate substantial demand for the foam control agents in the forecast period.
