Source sentences:
text: In the context of cleaning, the surfactant lowers the surface tension at liquid/gas, liquid/liquid, and liquid/solid interfaces.
text: Wetting agents or surfactants lower or reduce the surface tension between two liquids.
text: Surfactants are adjuvants that reduce surface tension within the external surface layers of water.
text: The key difference between dispersant and surfactant is that the dispersant improves the separation of particles in a suspension whereas the surfactant is a substance that can lower the surface tension between two phases of matter.
text: A surfactant is a substance that can lower the surface tension between two phases of matter.
text: A surfactant is a substance that can lower the surface tension between two phases of matter.
text: This means a dispersant prevents the formation of clusters of particles in a suspension while a surfactant lowers the surface tension between two liquids, between a gas and a liquid or between a liquid and a solid.
text: The difference between dispersant and surfactant is that a dispersant improves the separation of particles in a suspension whereas a surfactant is a substance that can lower the surface tension between two phases of matter.
text: Surfactants lower the surface tension (γ) and thus gibbs energy is gained from demulsification.
text: In the lungs, surfactant reduces the surface tension and helps to maximize the surface area available for gas exchange.
text: Wetting agents or surfactants lower or reduce the surface tension between two liquids.
text: In the lungs, surfactant reduces the surface tension and helps to maximize the surface area available for gas exchange.
text: Surfactants reduce surface tension and are found in products that many of us have contact with daily.
