Protein-Based Surfactants
Synthesis, Physicochemical Properties, and Applications
edited by Ifendu A. Nnanna and Jiding Xia
This book describes preparation techniques of protein-based surfactants (PBS) in the laboratory by a variety of chemical and enzymatic means, production by using different types of amino acids, and marketplace applications of PBS in medical and personal care products, detergents, cosmetics, antimicrobial agents, and foods.
Contains more than 950 reference citations, drawings, chemical structures, equations, and tables that serve as starting points for further research and clarify essential text material!
Including a systematically organized review of the field and recent noteworthy developments, Protein-Based Surfactants
- highlights safety, biodegradability, nontoxic, and nonirritating features of PBS
- reveals how underutilized protein and oil sources can be converted to valuable new surfactants
- discusses ionic and nonionic surfactants containing amino acids or peptides with perhydrogenated or perfluorinated chains
- examines surface and interfacial properties of micelles
- and more!
Uniting fundamental and practical aspects of PBS applications from diverse perspectives of international researchers, Protein-Based Surfactants is an indispensable reference for physical, surface, colloid, inorganic, organic, polymer, medicinal, pharmaceutical, and analytical chemists and biochemists; chemical engineers; materials scientists; biophysicists; biotechnologists; biomaterials specialists; and graduate students in these disciplines.
