Antiespumante en polvo para autonivelantes
Tenessy Powder Defoamer for Self Leveling
Self-leveling compounds are widely used in flooring systems to create smooth, flat, and high-strength surfaces before the installation of tiles, vinyl, or coatings. However, during mixing and pouring, excessive air bubbles can form in the mortar, leading to surface pinholes, weak spots, and reduced mechanical strength.
To overcome this issue, Tenessy developed a high-efficiency Antiespumante en polvo para autonivelantes—a specially formulated defoaming agent designed for drymix mortar systems. It effectively removes entrapped air during mixing and application, ensuring a dense, smooth, and flawless self-leveling surface. Suitable for both cement-based and gypsum-based formulations, it provides long-lasting defoaming performance even under high-shear mixing conditions.
How Does Powder Defoamer Work in Self Leveling Mortar?
When water is added to a self-leveling mortar, air becomes trapped within the mix, forming small bubbles. These bubbles can remain inside the layer or reach the surface as pinholes after curing, severely affecting surface appearance and mechanical properties.
Tenessy Powder Defoamer contains a unique blend of hydrophobic silica, mineral carriers, and active defoaming ingredients. Upon mixing, it rapidly disperses and migrates to the air-water interface, where it destabilizes foam films and releases trapped air. Its powder form ensures excellent compatibility with drymix systems, providing consistent defoaming performance without affecting flowability or setting behavior.
