Surfactants

Surfactants, short for surface-active agents, are chemical compounds that lower the surface tension between two substances, such as a liquid and a solid or a liquid and a gas. 


Surface-active agents, or surfactants, are essential to formulating cosmetics, detergents, and soaps. Surfactants have hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties, enabling them to disperse, emulsify, and stabilize mixtures of immiscible substances like oil and water.
