text: Wetting agents are frequently called surfactants, but in actuality they are just one class of the surfactants that assist in water infiltration.
text: A wetting agent can also be known as a surfactant, which is a type of chemical that alters the properties of liquids, because it causes changes to the surface tension of the liquid.
text: Wetting agents are surfactants with strong wetting properties; they can considerably reduce the surface tension of a liquid and therefore allow for the quick and deep penetration of preparation and dyeing baths into textile substrates.
text: The rate of wetting of coal dust by aqueous solutions of surface active agents (surfactants) has been studied.
