The spreading behaviour of defined trisiloxane surfactants of general formula [(CH 3 ) 3 SiO] 2 CH 3 Si(CH 2 ) 3 (OCH 2 CH 2 ) n OCH 3 (n = 3-9) on five different solid surfaces has been investigated. Maximum spreading areas and rates are found on non-polar or slightly polar surfaces of 30 to 40 mN

β¦ Synopsis
The temperature-dependent spreading performance of defined trisiloxane surfactants of the general formula [(CH 3 ) 3 SiO] 2 CH 3 Si-(CH 2 ) 3 (OCH 2 CH 2 ) 3-9 OCH 3 and Silwet L77 on a trimethylsilylated silicon-wafer surface has been investigated. At 6 Β°C the tetraethylene glycol derivative showed the highest initial spreading rate. At 40 Β°C the octaethylene glycol derivative was the fastest spreader. It is shown that spreading behaviour and phase behaviour are closely related. The highest initial spreading rates were found for solutions in the two-phase state (2Ξ¦) closely above the liquid-liquid insolubility boundary.

The spreading behaviour of binary and ternary equimolar mixtures of siloxane surfactants of general formula [(CH 3 ) 3 SiO] 2 CH 3 Si(CH 2 ) 3 (OCH 2 CH 2 ) n OCH 3 , n = 3-9, has been investigated. The mixtures show a pronounced temperature dependence on the initial spreading rate. Mixtures imitati
