Unlike conventional surfactants, hydrotropes do not form well‐defined micelles in water under standard conditions; instead, they induce dynamic, transient aggregates that facilitate solubilisation.

Moreover, the contribution of solubilization and competition to desorption of phenanthrene from MWCNTs was successfully separated for the first time. These findings demonstrate the two mechanisms on ...

The BESS trial is the largest-ever randomized study of surfactant for bronchiolitis. The work ran across 15 children's hospitals in England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland and involved 232 ...

The surfactant in the slurry can optimize the surface uniformity and surface topography of the wafer to realize the global planarization, so the effect of FA/O II surfactant as a complex non-ionic ...

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) suspensions in aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and saturated fatty acids (Cn) are studied. The quality of the dispersions is analyzed by ...

In the bile salts/HPC systems the interaction occurs mainly through the propyl groups, although a previous study indicates a weak interaction of these surfactants with poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO). 17 ...
