cationic surfactants
Surfactant
A substance that, when dissolved in water, lowers the surface tension of the water and increases the solubility of organic compounds. Surfactants are used in inks to increase the effects of capillary action; detergents are surfactants that help remove organic compounds from a substance by making them dissolve more readily in the water in which the substance is washed.
(The American Heritage Science Dictionary)
tensoactivos
Son sustancias que influyen por medio de la tensión superficial en la superficie de contacto entre dos fases (p.ej., dos líquidos insolubles uno en otro). Cuando se utilizan en la tecnología doméstica se denominan como emulgentes o emulsionantes; esto es, sustancias que permiten conseguir o mantener una emulsión.
