Abstract: HYPOTHESIS The properties of conventional surfactants (c-surfactants) are generally accepted to be amphipathicity-dominated, but extended surfactants (e-surfactants) are additionally polypropylene oxide (PPO)-dependent; this additional property makes us wonder how an intramolecular PPO spacer would be… read more here.
