Widely used in industrial processes where foam control is critical without introducing silicon-based residues. Ideal for applications in coatings, adhesives, printing inks, pesticides, and water treatment systems where silicon can cause defects such as surface imperfections or contamination. Effective in high-shear environments and compatible with a broad range of formulations, including emulsions and dispersions. Commonly selected in paper manufacturing, textile processing, and fermentation processes due to its ability to rapidly break foam and prevent re-foaming while remaining inert to the production process. Also preferred in food and pharmaceutical industries when approved grades are used, ensuring regulatory compliance and product purity. Performs well in high-temperature conditions and various acid-base systems without affecting the final product properties.
