Surfactants are chemical substances with biological activity that can be applied in many fields, including:

Detergents and cleaning agents: Surfactants can form emulsifiers between water and oil, reducing the surface tension of water, making them suitable for cleaning and detergent manufacturing.

Cosmetics: Surfactants are commonly used in cosmetics, such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste, shower gel, etc.

Drugs: Surfactants are also widely used in drug manufacturing, such as heparin, antibiotics, oral preparations, etc.

Agriculture: Surfactants can be used to enhance the stability of pesticides and fertilizers, while also increasing plant absorption rates.

Petroleum and natural gas industry: Surfactants are commonly used in oil and gas production processes, such as oil well fracturing and production enhancing agents.
