Source sentences:
text: Technically, a surfactant is a soluble compound that reduces the surface tension of liquids or reduces interfacial tension between two liquids or a liquid and a solid.
text: detergency - surface active agents, or surfactants, reduce the interfacial tension between solution and contaminant, enabling cleaning solutions to better penetrate and displace contaminants from the metal surface;
text: Surfactants or surface- active agents act in solid-liquid, solid-gas, or liquid-gas interfaces and reduces the interfacial tension.
