Volume 3, like the preceding volumes, focuses on the diversity of
surfactants, both in terms of chemical structure and
physico-chemical / surface active properties. These properties may
be predictable for simple molecules but, for most commercial
surfactants (which may be regarded as multi-component blends), this
is not so easy. Yet it is important to develop a greater
understanding of the interactions within a multi-component mixture,
in order to select the most appropriate product for a particular
application in which a combination of surface active properties is
required.
A special feature of this volume is the initial chapter, in
which the end uses of surface active agents are classified by
industrial sector and the surfactant properties required for each
application are presented in detail. The result is a unique guide
to the influence of chemical structure on performance in end use,
highlighting the benefits of particular surfactants and
illustrating how some of the newer classes of surfactant may
overcome the deficiencies of previously used products.
