They are colorless and odorless.Because of their special range of properties, SILFAR® antifoam agents are widely used in human and veterinary medicine. Another field of application is heavily foaming biotechnology processes. Many products of the SILFAR® range and their ingredients satisfy the monographs in the European Pharmacopoeia and the requirements of the US Pharmacopeia.
