[additional notes] 

GKB: Silicone antifoams are usually made up of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a silicone polymer. The silicone has low surface tension, so it spreads easily across a liquid surface and becomes a barrier to prevent foam from forming. 

Chiara Benedetti:

I was caught off guard with the mention of its applications in food since this is a Drug and Cosmetics journal. Are they advertising this for food processing agents or for something cosmetics related?
