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.
Surfactants In Weed Control Surfactants help herbicides do their job. When you're trying to kill weeds, you need to add a surfactant to the mix. Technically, a surfactant is a soluble compound that reduces the surface tension of liquids or reduces interfacial tension between two liquids or a liquid and a solid.In other words, it's a linear molecule with a hydrophilic (attracted to water) head and a hydrophobic (repelled by water) end.To be.o a test yourself: Mix up a broadleaf weed killer solution and spray it on some clover, dollar weed or thistle. You'll see that, in most cases, the water beads up and rolls right off the leaves. Then, add a surfactant to the mix and you'll note there's a sheen on the leaf surface.
