You can observe some of these physical effects if you change the " wetting agent " from say water to alcohol to colourless oil.
22.
The patented formula was awarded the 1998 Presidential Green Chemistry Award as a bio-degradable alternative to AFFF and AR-AFFF and other foams and wetting agents.
23.
They protect air quality by using natural cover crops, completely eliminating the burning of winter prunings and the use of environmentally safe wetting agents for vineyard roads.
24.
Insects losing their footing on this surface plummet to the bottom of the tube, where a combination of digestive fluid, wetting agents and inward-pointing hairs prevent their escape.
25.
Panel production involves various other chemicals including wax, dyes, wetting agents, release agents to make the final product water resistant, fireproof, insect proof, or to give it some other quality.
26.
Who knew that even the most expensive of them contain dangerous wetting agents, preservatives, colorings, pesticides, talc, silica, and formaldehyde, which can cause contact dermatitis, allergies, tissue irritation, or cancer?
27.
Maintaining a bath surface tension less than 35 dynes / cm requires a frequent cycle of treating the bath with a wetting agent and confirming the effect on surface tension.
28.
Many fluxes also act as a wetting agent in the soldering process, reducing the surface tension of the molten solder and causing it to flow and wet the workpieces more easily.
29.
Of course, the eyeballs themselves do not fog because of the wetting agents there in " just like smearing soap onto glasses to stop them fogging in a steam bath ".
30.
According to Bragg, a drop of dish detergent per gallon of water can serve as a wetting agent to lower the surface tension of the water so it will sink in more easily.
