Surface active agents (Surfactants) and Spreading coefficient
Surface active agents and Spreading coefficient Surface active agents, or surfactants, are compounds that reduce the surface tension between two phases, such as liquids, gases, or solids. These agents possess both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties, allowing them to interact with different substances. Surfactants are widely used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and
