It's a water surfactant. Basically, it means it makes the water slippery breaking surface tension, allowing coolant to move easier and air to move out of the motor.
It'll work fine with your DEXCOOL. Don't expect major temperature reductions. It will stabilize temperatures. I've used it for years in AZ summer temperatures.

Works much better with H2O and no coolant. As much as 15 F difference. With that said, best for track use or if you like frequent coolant changes. Leave it in and forget it and you'll get some nice reminders down the road.

Double Dose!
It is recommended you put two bottles in a Corvette.
One place you can read this recommendation is in the Mid America Motorworks catalog.
I used two bottles when I installed a 160 degrees. 198 degrees down to 178 degrees.
