As their number increases, their scission energy generally grows as well.
New types of these compounds are being synthesized using so-called Gemini structures. As their number increases, their scission energy generally grows as well. They are commonly classified into four groups: non-ionic and anionic types, the cationic type which comprises chains with quaternary amines and halide counterions, and the amphoteric type which have the properties of zwitterions. Beyond the CMC, these compounds form aggregates known as micelles. Usually consisting of a lipophilic tail carrying a hydrophilic head group, they include emulsifying agents and other solubilizers. Sometimes known as detergents, FTP, name these compounds which greatly reduce the surface tension of water when used in low concentration.
