SURFACTANTS: Chemistry and Properties

AJ O'Lenick Jr

Surfactants: Chemistry and Properties provides the formulation chemist with a basic understanding of the chemistry, structural attributes and functional properties of major types of surfactants.
A proposal of salient analytical tests for each class of compounds is also offered.
Chapters include:

• Raw materials for surfactant preparation
• Amphoteric surfactants
• Anionic surfactants
• Cationic surfactants
• Nanionic surfactants
• Silicone surfactants
• Analytical methods
• Patent references

After reading this work, the formulator will be able to make better decisions in selecting the proper surfactant and in ensuring batch-to-batch conformity to specifications and supplier-to-supplier uniformity.
