Surfactants, with their amphiphilic molecular structure, are crucial in cleaning and emulsification due to their ability to adsorb at water and other media interfaces. In cleaning products, they are key for effective dirt removal. Surfactants work by lowering water’s surface tension, enhancing its wetting ability on surfaces, and preventing dirt from redepositing. They also modify the wetting properties of solid contaminants and use charge repulsion to aid in dirt removal.
