Ester-based surfactants: Are they stable enough? [PDF]
Surfactants with an ester bond connecting the polar headgroup and the hydrophobic tail are common. They are easy to synthesize, they can often be made from natural raw materials and their biodegradation profile is generally good, partly due to lipase or ...

Pulmonary surfactant reduces the surface tension of the alveolar air-liquid interface, thereby providing mechanical stability and preventing alveolar atelectasis. More than 50% of surfactant is dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine, a material that is capable of reducing the surface tension of the alveolar interface to uniquely low values.

Assessment of the potential skin irritation of lysine-derivative anionic surfactants using mouse fibroblast and human keratinocytes as an alternative to animal testing [PDF]
Purpose. The aim of this study was to identify new surfactants with low skin irritant properties for use in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations, employing cell culture as an alternative method to in vivo testing.

Impact of Polymer Nanoparticles on DPPC Monolayer Properties
The application of surface rheology and Brewster angle microscopy on mixed monolayers of DPPC and polymeric nanoparticles (cationic and anionic) showed that the sign of the particle charge affects the dynamic properties of the monolayers less than the ...

Effect of surfactants on liquid side mass transfer coefficients: a new insight [PDF]
Specific experiments are proposed to investigate the effect of surfactants on liquid side mass transfer coefficients. They are based on the determination of the liquid side mass transfer coefficient kL at a free gas-liquid interface, under controlled ...
