Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension between two substances, such as a liquid and a solid or two liquids. They play a critical role in products like detergents, soaps, and shampoos by allowing oils, dirt, and other residues to mix with water for easy removal. Surfactants are also used in agriculture, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals for emulsifying, wetting, foaming, and dispersing applications. Common types include anionic, cationic, nonionic, and amphoteric surfactants, each selected based on specific performance needs.
