消泡劑全球市場預測(2025-2030)Global Defoamers Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030 |
全球消泡劑市場預計將從 2025 年的 38.59 億美元成長到 2030 年的 49.49 億美元,複合年成長率為 5.1%。
消泡劑或抗泡劑是減少和防止工業製程流體中泡沫形成的化學添加劑。大多數工業過程中都不希望出現泡沫,泡沫會導致許多操作問題,包括表面塗層不良、抑制氧氣傳遞以及阻止容器和儲罐裝滿。消泡劑可去除現有泡沫,而抗泡劑可防止泡沫形成。
消泡劑用於許多工業製程和產品,包括農藥、水處理、紙張和紙漿、油漆和塗料、食品加工、石油和天然氣、製藥、化學品和金屬加工。使用消泡劑有利於提高這些製程的性能,增加產量並降低營業成本。它還在減少最終用戶製造過程中產生的二氧化碳排放方面發揮著至關重要的作用,推動了對低VOC、無溶劑消泡劑的需求。
製造商優先使用生物基和永續原料,而不是石油基材料,生產商則專注於開發創新的高性能矽膠化合物,以提高產品性能。這些公司旨在透過推出新產品、擴大產品系列、擴張地理和投資研發來開拓市場。每家公司都專注於開發專為特定應用而設計的產品。為了鞏固市場地位,公司計劃擴大各行業的基本客群,並專注於開發滿足不同客戶需求的產品。
已開發地區消費者環保意識的不斷增強預計將進一步推動水基消泡劑的使用,因為它們具有環境永續性。在此方面,2024年6月,Elementis推出了更具永續的96%生物基碳含量、C14檢驗的DAPRO BIO 9910。該公司被認為是油漆、塗料和工業水性應用流變改質劑的領先特種化學品供應商。這項重大發展將使公司能夠滿足客戶對環保且經濟高效的消泡劑日益成長的需求。
然而,矽膠消泡劑含有揮發性有機化合物(VOC)。 VOC含量過高對環境有害。因此,企業紛紛致力於生產無VOC產品,並創新開發高性能有機矽膠化合物作為原料。然而,一些公司仍在生產較舊的矽膠消泡劑,這些消泡劑會排放對環境和人類有害的危險煙霧。
美國FDA和歐盟委員會等監管機構也實施了多項法律來控制消泡劑的成分。無溶劑消泡劑的VOC含量較低,因此世界各地的環境法規都鼓勵使用無溶劑消泡劑,而不是高VOC消泡劑。
消泡劑市場促進因素
消泡劑是大多數主要行業中使用的非常重要的化學品,包括紙漿和造紙、石油和天然氣以及水處理。例如,在石油和天然氣工業中,鑽井液用於在鑽油井時平衡井孔。當鑽井液到達地面時,它會產生泡沫,而這種泡沫在此時很難泵送或清洗。因此,需要在流體中添加消泡劑來消除泡沫。它是一種必需的化學品,隨著最終用戶行業的擴張,其消耗量將會越來越大。
另一個例子是在水處理廠中使用消泡劑。消泡劑可減少泵浦氣蝕、防止溢流損失並提高衛生和安全性。因此,消泡劑可以最佳化污泥脫水過程,促進澄清、過濾、濃縮和浮選過程。
消泡劑市場的地理前景
中國、日本、印度、韓國等主要經濟體佔據亞太地區主導地位。一些成長最快的新興經濟體都位於該地區,例如東南亞國協。
亞太地區消泡劑市場正在成長,這得益於快速工業化等多種因素,尤其是中國和印度,這兩個國家的製造業活動蓬勃發展,基礎設施投資不斷增加。消費品產量不斷成長,尤其是食品和飲料行業的產量,以及鼓勵有效廢棄物管理的嚴格環境法規進一步推動了對消泡劑的需求。此外,在油漆和塗料、農業化學品和水處理等不同行業中越來越多的應用凸顯了消泡劑在這種動態的市場環境中對最佳化生產流程和提高產品品質的關鍵作用。

The global defoamers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1%, reaching a market size of US$4.949 billion in 2030 from US$3.859 billion in 2025.
A defoamer or an anti-foaming agent is a chemical additive that reduces and prevents the formation of foam in industrial process liquids. Foam is undesirable in most industrial processes and causes a lot of problems in operations, such as defective coatings on the surface, blocking oxygen transfer, and preventing the filling of containers or tanks up to capacity. A defoamer eliminates existing foam, while anti-foam prevents further formation of foam.
Defoamers are used in many industrial processes and products such as agrochemicals, water treatment, paper and pulp, paints and coatings, food processing, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, metalworking, etc. The application of defoamers benefits these processes through increased production capacity, output volume, and reduced operational cost. They also play an important role in reducing the carbon footprint caused by the manufacturing process of end-users, driving the demand for low VOC solvent-free defoamers.
Manufacturers prioritize utilizing bio-based and sustainable raw materials rather than petro-based variants, while the producers focus on developing innovative and high-performance silicone compounds to improve product performance. Companies are aiming for their market footprints through new product launches, product portfolio expansion, geographical expansions, and investments in research and development. They are focusing on developing products designed for specific applications. To strengthen their market positions, they are also planning to expand their customer base in various industries and focus on product development to meet varying customer needs.
Rising environmental awareness among consumers in developed regions is further anticipated to propel the use of water-based defoamers due to their environmental sustainability. In this regard, in June 2024, Elementis announced their new 96% biobased carbon content, C14 verified DAPRO BIO 9910, which is more sustainable. The company is regarded as a leading specialty chemical supplier of rheology modifiers for paint, coating & industrial aqueous applications. This key development will allow the company to meet the growing demand of customers for environmentally safe and cost-effective defoamers.
However, silicone defoamers contain volatile organic compound (VOC) content. High VOC content is dangerous to the environment. Therefore, companies are focusing on manufacturing VOC content-free products and innovating to develop high-performance silicone compounds as raw materials. However, some companies are still producing old silicone defoamers that might emit dangerous gases that are harmful to the environment and human health.
Regulatory bodies like the U.S. FDA and the European Commission have also enforced several laws to manage the composition of defoamers. Environmental regulations worldwide encourage their use over high-VOC deformers because of the low VOC of solvent-free deformers.
Global defoamers market drivers
Deformers are very important chemicals used in almost every major industry, such as paper and pulp, oil and gas, water treatment, etc. For example, in the oil & gas industry, when an oil well is drilled, drilling fluid is used to balance the borehole. At times, drilling fluid generates foam as it reaches the surface, and at this stage, foam can be difficult to pump and clean up. Hence, defoamers are added to the fluid to break the foam. It is a necessary chemical that will be consumed more with the expansion of end-user industries.
Another example is the use of defoamers in water treatment facilities by municipal and industrial wastewater streams. Where they assist in reducing pump cavitations, preventing loss due to overflow, and improving sanitation and safety. Hence, defoamers optimize the sludge dewatering process and facilitate clarification, filtration, thickening, and floatation processes.
Geographical outlook of the global defoamers market
The major economies like China, Japan, India, and South Korea dominate the Asia-Pacific region. Some of the fastest-growing emerging economies are from this region, such as ASEAN countries.
The APAC market for defoamers is growing owing to several factors, such as rapid industrialization, especially in China and India, where there are strong manufacturing activities and increasing investment in infrastructures. The increasing production of consumer goods, especially in the food and beverage sector, and stringent environmental regulations promoting effective waste management further fuel the demand for defoaming agents. Additionally, the rise in applications across diverse industries, such as paints and coatings, agrochemicals, and water treatment, underscores the critical role of defoamers in optimizing production processes and enhancing product quality within this dynamic market landscape.
