What role does the hydrophobic PO chain play in destabilizing the foam film?
What role does the hydrophobic PO chain play in destabilizing the foam film? The Propylene Oxide (PO) chain in EO/PO block co-polymers plays a vital role in the process of defoaming in aqueous systems, specifically in the foam destabilization stage. Here’s the role it plays: Role of the Hydrophobic PO Chain in Defoaming 1. Foam…
