Wetting surfactants and

The wetting of a liquid drop placed on a solid surface has already been described (Section 3.4) by the critical surface tension of the surface and by Young s equation. Temperature is a factor in wetting by aqueous solutions since it influences surfactant solubility. For example, the fastest wetting for polyoxyethylenated non-ionic surfactants is produced by those whose cloud points are just above the use temperature [193]. 

To reduce the wetting of water on a hydrophilic surface, to dewet the surface and/or to make it water repellent, the adsorption of a greasy material can be induced in order to increase the contact angle until it is substantially in the

Most mineral fillers can be easily incorporated into solvent-borne and water-borne (adding adequate surfactants and wetting agents) adhesives.

Aqueous suspensions comprise a wide range of adhesives. These will contain as additives the various soaps, surfactants, and wetting agents necessary to stabilize the emulsion or latex. Additives are also incorporated into aqueous formulations to provide system stability under repeated freeze-thaw cycles during storage.

These herbicides, in particular those of the last two groups, rarely penetrate the strictly lipophilic barrier formed by the cuticle they must therefore be distributed, with surfactants and wetting agents, in the form of salts or esters of their parent active ingredients. In fact, they are generally weak acids with intermediate lipophilicity expressed as the... 

Such extenders are consequently not wetted, or if so only poorly, by aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents. However, the binder takes over this function to some extent because it contains surfactants and wetting agents added by the formulator [4.15].

Most of mineral fillers can be easily incorporated into solvent-borne and water-borne (adding adequate surfactants and wetting agents) adhesives. Hydrocarbon resins, rosin, rosin ester, coumarone indene resins, and terpene resins can be directly added to solvent-borne adhesives. For latex adhesives, resin emulsification must be produced before addition.
