tensoactive and surfactive agents Explanation: hope it helps -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-06 22:53:42 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Un par de contextos: Para \"surfactive\", el texto corresponde a un laboratorio de química de una universidad. Te vienen varios ejemplos de agentes surfoactivos. \"A strategy was used to optimize the biocompatibility of the oxygen-sensitive materials by decreasing the size of the particles and coating them with suspending or surfactive agents such as arabic gum, poloxamer (Pluriol 6800), and polyvinylpyrrolidone\" http://www.md.ucl.ac.be/pharma/Abstracts-FARM/Gallez-1998-3.... Para \"tensoactive\", los ingredientes de un detergetne: EverFlor Clavel contains a complex organic compound made of the ultraviolet extract of Citrus Grandis. That is why it is natural, it does not contaminate and it is not toxic. Active ingredients: 30% citrus extract 20% tensoactive agents 20% acidifying agent Inert ingredients: 50% Organic Solvents Surfactant y surface active lo he visto en páginas bilingües como traducción del español surfactante. Sin más contexto no me atrevo a decir que surfactivo y surfactante sea lo mismo. |

Used esp. of detergents. Source: American Heritage Dictionary -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-06 22:43:03 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note: You will find a hundred or so hits on Google for \"tensoactive\" or \"tenso-active,\" but note that many of them are on sites that have been translated from Spanish. Surface-active has over 32,000 hits. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-06 22:47:02 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Many of the Google hits for \"tensioactive\" are from French or other foreign sites. This is the danger of just finding hits on Google for a term. It is important to look carefully at the site before deciding that the term is correct. |
