Today, formulated preparations are part of everyday life. Formulations based on surfactants are by far the most prolific, from shampoos and shower gels to emulsion paint and polishes. This book discusses the chemical technology of surfactants and related chemicals, using over forty examples of everyday products. Some basic theory on surface chemistry, molecular interactions and surfactant function is included to aid understanding. 410 0$aRSC Paperbacks 606 $aSurface active agents 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSurface active agents. 676 $a668.1 700 $aHargreaves$b Tony$g(Anthony Edward)$0974250 712 02$aRoyal Society of Chemistry (Great Britain) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454416603321 996 $aChemical formulation$92217964 997 $aUNINA
