`SURFACE-ACTIVE AGENT (cid:9)

`
`surface, but it also includes dispersions involving
`only one phase of matter, i.e., solid-solid or liquid-
`liquid.
`See interface; surface area; surface chemistry.
`
`surface-active agent. (surfactant). Any com-
`pound that reduces surface tension when dissolved
`in water or water solutions, or that reduces inter-
`facial tension between two liquids, or between a
`liquid and a solid. There are three categories of sur-
`face-active agents: detergents, wetting agents, and
`emulsifiers; all use the same basic chemical mech-
`anism and differ chiefly in the nature of the surfaces
`involved.
`See interface; surface chemistry.
`
`surface area. The total area of exposed surface of
`a finely divided solid (powder, fiber, etc.) including
`irregularities of all types. Since activity is greatest
`at the surface, that is, the boundary between the
`particle and its environment, the larger the surface
`area of a given substance, the more reactive it is.
`Thus reduction to small particles is a means of in-
`creasing the efficiency of both chemical and physi-
`cal reactions; for example, the coloring effect of
`pigments is increased by maximum size reduction.
`Carbon black is notable among solids for its huge
`surface area (as much as 18 acres/lb for some
`types); the activity of its surface accounts for its
`outstanding ability to increase the strength and ab-
`rasion resistance of rubber. The capacity of acti-
`vated carbon to adsorb molecules of gases is due to
`this factor. Surface area is measured most accu-
`rately by nitrogen adsorption techniques.
`
`surface chemistry. The observation and mea-
`surement of forces acting at the surfaces of gases,
`liquids and solids or at the interfaces between them.
`This includes the surface tension of liquids (vapor
`pressure, solubility); emulsions (liquid-liquid inter-
`faces); finely divided solid particles (adsorption, ca-
`talysis); permeable membranes and microporous
`materials; and biochemical phenomena such as os-
`mosis, cell function, and metabolic mechanisms in
`plants and animals. Surface chemistry has many in-
`dustrial applications, a few of which are air pollu-
`tion, soaps and synthetic detergents, reinforcement
`of rubber and plastics, behavior of catalysts, color
`and optical properties of paints, aerosol sprays of
`all types, monolayers and thin films, both metallic
`and organic. Outstanding names in the development
`of this science are Graham, Freundlich, and W. Ost-
`wald in the 19th Century, and Harkins, Langmuir,
`LaMer, and McBain in the 20th.
`See colloid chemistry.
`
`surface tension. In any liquid, the attractive force
`exerted by the molecules below the surface upon
`those at the surface-air interface, resulting from the
`high molecular concentration of a liquid compared
`to the low molecular concentration of a gas. An
`inward pull, or internal pressure, is thus created
`
`which tends to restrain the liquid from flowing. Its
`strength varies with the chemical nature of the liq-
`uid. Polar liquids have high surface tension (water
`= 73 dynes/cm at 20C); nonpolar liquids have
`much lower values (benzene = 29 dynes/cm, eth-
`anol = 22.3 dynes/cm), thus they flow more readily
`than water. Mercury, with the highest surface ten-
`sion of any liquid (480 dynes/cm) does not flow,
`but disintegrates into droplets.
`See interface; surface-active agent.
`
`surfactant. See surface-active agent.
`
`"Sur-Gard" [Nalco] . TM for chemicals used
`for treatment of boiler water to inhibit scale and
`corrosion and to remove oxygen from the boiler
`water.
`
`"Surlyn" [Du Pont]. TM for a group of ionomer
`resins.
`Properties: ("Surlyn" A) Thermoplastic produced
`as a granular material; flexible, transparent, grease
`resistant; very light weight but tough. Izod impact
`strength 5.7-14.6 ft-lb/in (higher than any other
`polyolefin), tensile strength 3,500-5,500 psi, elon-
`gation 300-400%, softening point 71. Insoluble in
`any commercial solvent. Subject to slow swelling
`by hydrocarbons, to slow attack by acids.
`Use: Coatings, packaging films, products made by
`injection or blow molding, or by thermoforming.
`
`SUS. Abbreviation for Saybolt Universal Seconds.
`See Saybolt Universal viscosity.
`
`suspension. A system in which very small parti-
`cles (solid, semisolid, or liquid) are more or less
`uniformly dispersed in a liquid or gaseous medium.
`If the particles are small enough to pass through
`filter membranes, the system is a colloidal suspen-
`sion (or solution). Examples of solid-in-liquid sus-
`pensions are comminuted wood pulp in water,
`which becomes paper on filtration; the fat particles
`in milk; and the red corpuscles in blood. A liquid-
`in-gas suspension is represented by fog or by an
`aerosol spray. If the particles are larger than col-
`loidal dimensions they will tend to precipitate if
`heavier than the suspending medium, or to agglom-
`erate and rise to the surface if lighter. This can be
`prevented by incorporation of protective colloids.
`Polymerization is often carried out in suspension,
`the product being in the form of spheres or beads.
`See solution; colloidal; dispersion; emulsion; colloid
`chemistry.
`
`"Sustane" [UOP]. TM for synthetic, food-grade
`antioxidant product line including BHA, BHT,
`TBHQ, propyl gallate, and liquid blends.
`Use: To preserve vegetable oils, animal fats, spices,
`baked goods, nuts, pet foods, dressing oils, confec-
`tions, cereals, sausage, cosmetics, and dehydrated
`potatoes.
