Debubblizer

A debubblizer is a surface tension chemical compound that is used in certain industrial processes to minimize air bubbles when casting a mold or impression. In some manufacturing operations, such as dentistry, it is also referred to as surfactant or a wetting agent that is sprayed on the set impression material to improve wettability.[1] Its reduction of surface tension allows for mixing and will eliminate air bubbles to produce fine casings.[2]
