Turbo Core Technology. Performance when ââyou need it. Think of your PC as a race car with a powerful turbocharger sitting under the hood. You're driving along at a casual pace when the urge to speed up grips you, so you flip the switch to turbo, and â in an instant â your engine's full capacity kicks in and rockets you down the road.
Pulmonary Surfactant. Surfactant is a complex substance containing phospholipids and a number of apoproteins. Surfactant reduces surface tension throughout the lung, thereby contributing to its general compliance. Pulmonary surfactant is a surface-active lipoprotein complex formed by type II alveolar cells.ottom left: the phospholipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC). Center right: sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) AOT is a rare surfactant-it is soluble and active in both oil and water. Botton right: pentaethylene glycol monodecyl ether (C12EO5), a non-ionic surfactant. Top of Page.
The word surfactant is short for surface active agent. Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension of a liquid, the interfacial tension between two liquids, or the interfacial tension between a liquid and a solid.In solutions this behavior is known as wetting, and it occurs as a result of surfactants adsorbing to the air/water interface.urfactants affect the behavior of a paint not only during the lifetime of the formed coating but also the initial aggregation and film formation of the paint. Surfactants are also used to stabilize the dispersion of polymer particles during emulsion polymerization in paints and other applications.
