Surface active agents: some applications in surface coatings

Abstract

Surface active agents are widely used to impart special characteristics to surface coatings formulations. The large variety of “surfactants” now commercially available may leave the coating technologist with the problem of how to choose the best for his particular system. It is hoped that by outlining the relationships between molecular structure and surfactant properties a reasonable working basis for selection of surfactants may be gained.
