Þetta efni er sótthreinsandi og dregur úr slímmyndun. Það er stundum að finna í vökvum sem notaðir eru í tengslum við málmvinnslu. Það er einnig notað í kælivökva (cooling fluids) og í pappírsiðnaði.
Þennan ofanæmisvaka er einnig stundum að finna í lími og er hann stundum að finna í snyrtivörum til að hafa áhrif á seigju (viscosity) þeirra.
