E900 (Dimethylpolysiloxane) is a food-grade antifoaming agent used in commercial frying oils. It reduces foam formation during high-temperature frying operations, which is particularly important in commercial kitchens and food processing facilities. Benefits include:
- Reduced oil splatter and safer frying operations
- Extended oil life in continuous frying applications
- Improved visual clarity of oil during use
- More consistent frying results for food products
The addition is minimal (typically 10ppm) and complies with international food safety standards.
