Detergents suspending power

Schulze [51] described an extensive study on C12-C14 ether carboxylic acid sodium salt (4.5 mol EO) in terms of surface tension, critical micelle concentration (CMC), wetting, detergency, foam, hardness stability, and lime soap dispersing properties. He found good detergent effect compared to the etho-xylated C16-C18 fatty alcohol (25 mol EO) independent of CaCl2 concentration, there was excellent soil suspending power, low surface tension, and fewer Ca deposits than with alkylbenzenesulfonate. [Pg.323]

Suspending Power. The ability of a detergent or detergent component to keep foreign material away from the solid material from which it has been removed in order to prevent redeposition. See also Detergency, Detergent. [Pg.607]

Phospha.tes, Pentasodium triphosphate [7758-29-4] sodium tripolyphosphate, STPP, Na P O Q, is the most widely used and most effective builder in heavy-duty fabric washing compositions (see also Phosphoric acid and phosphates). It is a strong sequestrant for calcium and magnesium, with a p c of ca 6, and provides exceUent suspending action for soils. Because of its high sequestration power, it also finds extensive appHcation in automatic-dishwashing detergents. Sodium tripolyphosphate forms stable hydrates and thus aids in the manufacture of crisp spray-dried laundry powders. [Pg.527]

Surfactants are a class of amphipathic compounds that includes soaps, detergents, and emulsifiers. With the use of surfactants, hydrophobic compounds can be suspended in aqueous solution by forming micelles (see Fig. 2-7). A micelle has a hydrophobic core consisting of the hydrophobic compound and the hydrophobic tails of the surfactant the hydrophilic heads of the surfactant cover the surface of the micelle. A suspension of micelles is called an emulsion. The more hydrophilic the head group of the surfactant, the more powerful it is—that is, the greater its capacity to emulsify hydrophobic material. [Pg.24]

Note Use Britesil H20 in place of Metso Beads 2048, partially or fully, if lower alkalinity is desired and more suspending/ emulsifying power is needed. Britesil H20 will also increase the surfactant adsorbency of detergent blend. [Pg.86]
