Low foaming surfactants are nonionic surfactants with altered alkyl chains or levels of alkoxylation. Low foam non-ionic surfactants are ideal for a variety of cleaning applications in the home, industry, and institutions. Due to their quick wetting qualities paired with minimal foam, low dynamic surface tension, and strong detergency, low foam surfactants are effective in a wide range of applications. When added to water, most of them have a low freezing point and do not gel. This particularly formulated products aid in filth removal, foaming and foam management, wetting, emulsification, and dispersion, among other qualities and functions. In order to comply with environmental laws, companies in the low foam surfactants market are focused on adopting modern techniques to manufacture high quality low foam surfactants. BASF SE is a well-known participant in the low foam surfactants sector. There are three varieties of low foam surfactants: non-ionic, amphoteric, and cationic. Chemical surfactants produced from petrochemical or oleochemical sources dominate the global low foam surfactants market.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
- The surfactant business has been severely harmed by a worldwide pandemic on a global scale, including decreased demand and productivity, operational and supply chain disruptions, and regional lockdowns.
- China is one of the most affected country since it is one of the world's largest manufacturers and consumers of surfactants. The demand for surfactants fell in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of China's entire closure.
- The surfactant industry is projected to be impacted by logistics and supply chain interruptions as the situation in nations like the United States and Europe worsens. Furthermore, because synthetic surfactants are a petroleum-based product, negative oil prices have a significant impact on them.
- Akzo Nobel N.V., Air Products and Chemicals, BASF SE, Clariant AG, The Dow Chemical Company, Evonik Industries AG, and Huntsman Corporation are among the largest surfactant makers. These major producers have taken precautions to protect their workers and have to shut down their factories in accordance with regional regulations.
