EC-8080

What is it?


EC-8080 is a silicone-based antifoaming agent specifically designed for liquid detergents and
dishwashing detergents. Comprised of polysiloxane and modified polysiloxane, it ensures that foam
does not hinder the detergent’s performance.


How do I use it?


You can’t dilute EC-8080, so you should use it at its original concentration. Add it directly to your
liquid detergent mix. We recommend a dosage between 0.05% to 1%, but you should determine the
exact amounts through laboratory testing to get the best results.


What’s in it for me?

  1. REACH Compliance:
    Benefit: This adherence to REACH’s SVHC list ensures that the defoamer is
    environmentally and human friendly. This could lead to better market access, a positive
    brand image, and fewer regulatory concerns.
  2. No NP or APEO:
    Benefit: The absence of NP and APEO underlines the product’s environmental
    consciousness. This makes it appealing to an eco-aware consumer base and signifies a
    commitment to sustainable manufacturing.
  3. Easy Dispersion in Liquid Detergent:
    Benefit: Simplified integration into detergent formulations ensures a streamlined
    production process, minimising the chances of errors or inconsistencies in the final
    product.
  4. Compatibility with Liquid Detergents:
    Benefit: Its ability to blend seamlessly with various liquid detergents without altering
    their chemical balance means manufacturers can retain the efficacy of their original
    detergent formula. This offers flexibility in production and may lead to cost savings.
  5. Efficient Composition:
    Benefit: The elements like polysiloxane and modified polysiloxane give the product its
    effective antifoaming properties. This ensures a consistent, high-quality detergent
    product that meets consumer expectations.

With EC-8080, detergent manufacturers can seamlessly incorporate this product to augment their
offerings, ensuring their liquid detergents’ safety, efficiency, and quality.
