Organo-Silicone Surfactants in Alkaline Cleaners

摘要

Organo-silicone surfactants impart very high surface tension depressing characteristics, but in themselves are not good cleaners. When used with other surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulphate or sodium dodecyl benzene sulphonate, a cleaner can be developed equal to formulas described in Federal Specification P-C-436. Present costs would not permit general use of the organo silicone surfactants for this purpose. (Author)
