Air release agents
Air release agents for thermoset composites
Entrapped air in the composites matrix affects negatively the composites properties, besides others the porosity, the osmose and the mechanical properties. Air release agents are designed to first eliminate the air bubble entrapped, secondly to prevent the formation of air-bubbles and enable the air bubbles to rise to the surface and collapse.
Our Efka® air release agents are used to suppress and destroy foam and its negative effects during application in the thermoset composites. By removing or inhibiting air bubbles they are important process aids throughout the production as well as the applications process. Manufacturers benefit from foam-free production processes by reaching their desired results much quicker.
