Organosilicon compounds are widely encountered in commercial products. Most common are antifoamers, caulks (sealant), adhesives, and coatings made from silicones. Other important uses include agricultural and plant control adjuvants commonly used in conjunction with herbicides and fungicides. Several organosilicon compounds have been investigated as pharmaceuticals. Product References: [1] S.M. Mazzoni, et al., The Handbook of Environmental Chemistry, Vol 3. Part H.
