Antifoams and Dewebbing Agents

Anti-foam agents are used in dipping mixes or other similar latex compounds to either prevent foam formation or to destroy existing foam.

Dewebbing agents are materials used to hinder the unwanted formation of membranes between adjacent parts of a drip former once the mould has been removed from the latex (e.g. latex gloves).
