Defoamers Market: High Technical Experience and Expertise Helps Large Players Remain at Forefront, TMR

The global defoamers market is a highly fragmented arena. Some of the leading companies operating in the market are Dow Corning Corporation, Ashland Inc., Kemira Oyj, Bluestar Silicones, and Air Products and Chemicals Inc. Transparency Market Research (TMR) observes that the majority of these players in the market are large chemical companies with dedicated manufacturing technologies along with experience and expertise. 
The high technical acumen of these players along with large capital requirement to venture into this market is creating a high entry barrier for new players. “However, a large number of end users is making the global defoamers market highly lucrative for new players,” says TMR’s lead analyst. The global defoamers market was valued at US$3.00 bn in 2016 and is expected to rise to US$4.10 bn by 2023, progressing at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2015 to 2023. 



Silicone-based Defoamers to Lead Revenue Generation through 2023 
On the basis of application, silicone-based defoamers will continue to dominate the market until the end of 2023, accounting for 44.9% of the overall market revenue. Water-based defoamers, on the other hand, will rise at a CAGR higher than any other segment during the review period. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the rising demand from the paints and coatings industry. 
Based on geography, Asia Pacific will continue to be the frontrunner in the global arena until 2023. The growth of the region can be attributed to the spiraling demand for defoamers in countries such as India, China, and Japan. The increasing demand from end-use sectors such as the food and beverages and paper and pulp is also contributing to the growth of the region. Owing to these factors, APAC is estimated to exhibit a CAGR of 4.9% during the same period. 
High Demand from Paper and Pulp Industry Fuels Growth Prospects 
The significant growth of the pulp and paper industry worldwide is positively impacting the global defoamers market. “Defoamers are being increasingly acknowledged as they help in lowering problems such as foam formation, bacteria development, drainage issues, and paper breaking,” says a TMR analyst. In addition, the robust growth of the global water and wastewater treatment industry augmenting the market.

The rising demand for paints and coatings is also working in favor of the global defoamers market. Stringent environmental regulations are leading to the replacement of solvent-based systems with waterborne coating systems. The increased amount of special surfactants used in waterborne coatings results in excessive foam formation, which creates a pressing need for higher efficient defoamers. Moreover, the growing demand for antifoaming agents in the food and beverage industry is stoking the growth of the global market. 
However, the health and safety risks posed by the additives used in defoamers are prompting regulatory bodies to take measures regarding their usage. Application of defoamers in food and drugs is listed in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under the U.S. government regulations. The imposition of stringent regulations is hampering the growth of the market. On the other hand, the increasing demand for defoamers in Asia Pacific, owing to the flourishing growth of end-user industries, is creating lucrative opportunities for players in the global market. 
The defoamers market has been segmented as follows: 

Global Defoamers Market, by Product
  • Water-based Defoamers
  • Oil-based Defoamers
  • Silicone-based Defoamers
  • Others (Including EO/PO-based Defoamers, etc.)

Global Defoamers Market, by Application
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Water Treatment
  • Paints & Coatings
  • Food & Beverages
  • Others (Including Pharmaceuticals, Mining, Printing, Agricultural Chemicals, etc.)

The above data is collated from a research report released by TMR, titled “Defoamers Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015-2023.”

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
