Emerging trends in Surfactants Science: Properties and Industrial Applications

Surfactants are specialty ingredients for systems requiring the stabilisation of interfaces, such as emulsions, foams, dispersions etc and for delivery of active ingredients. This has revolutionized its use in various industries from detergency to pesticides, paints, coatings, oil recovery, functional foods and pharmaceuticals. The advances in scientific knowledge related to surfactant science made a global impact in relevant industries. This seminar will address some of the recent progress in this fascinating area.
