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.  \u003cp\u003eIn the first chapter of this volume, detailed consideration is given to surfactant applications in the context of structure-performance relationships. 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.\u003cbr\u003e Many applications of surfactants feature formulations which incorporate polymeric materials. The topic of surfactant-polymer interactions is receiving considerable attention at present and so a chapter has been included on this area.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn an attempt to illustrate the diversity of surfactant uses and focus on some of the latest developments in application technology, five areas of application are presented: natural surfactants for drug delivery systems, surfactants used in the construction industry, preparation and end uses of inverse emulsions (for example, as flocculants), the use of surfactants in plastics flotation (part of the plastics recycling process) and the role of surfactants in 'dynamic wetting'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSurfactant applications in the context of structure-performance relationships\u003cbr\u003e Surfactants in inverse (water-in-oil) emulsion polymers of acrylamide\u003cbr\u003e Inter-actions between polymers and surfactants\u003cbr\u003e Use of surfactants in plastic flotation\u003cbr\u003e Surface-active agents in the construction industry\u003cbr\u003e The role of surfactants in dynamic wetting\u003cbr\u003e Interfacial properties of natural surfactants and their application in drug delivery systems\u003cbr\u003e References\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Chemistry%20%5BPN%5D%22\"\u003ePN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52449373290776,"sku":"9781841271194","price":123.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781841271194.jpg?v=1785197115","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/surface-active-behaviour-of-performance-surfactants-hardback-9781841271194","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
