  2. Water level (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_level_(device)

    A surfactant (surface active agent), such as hand-dishwashing liquid detergent, can be added to the water to significantly lower the surface tension of the water. This liquid solution will flow more easily and more rapidly in the tube than plain water, so operation of the device will be more precise, repeatable, and responsive – particularly ...

  3. Dishwasher detergent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwasher_detergent

    Non-ionic surfactants: Lower the surface tension of the water, emulsifies oil, lipid and fat food deposits, prevents droplet spotting on drying. Alkaline salts: These are a primary component in older and original-style dishwasher detergent powders [citation needed]. Highly alkaline salts attack and dissolve grease, but are extremely corrosive ...

  4. Dishwashing liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwashing_liquid

    Hand dishwashing detergents utilize surfactants to play the primary role in cleaning. [5] The reduced surface tension of water and increased solubility of modern surfactant mixtures allow water to run off dishes very quickly. Additionally, surfactants remove grease and food particles to aid in cleaning dishes. [5] They may also provide foam. [5]

  6. Sodium dodecyl sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dodecyl_sulfate

    Bottle of 20% sodium dodecyl sulfate in distilled water for use in the laboratory. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) in water at 25 °C is 8.2 mM, [1] and the aggregation number at this concentration is usually considered to be about 62. [3] The micelle ionization fraction (α) is around 0.3 (or 30%). [4]

  7. Triton X-100 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triton_X-100

    Triton X-100 (C 14 H 22 O(C 2 H 4 O) n) is a nonionic surfactant that has a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide chain (on average it has 9.5 ethylene oxide units) and an aromatic hydrocarbon lipophilic or hydrophobic group.

  8. Level sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_sensor

    Conductive level sensors are ideal for the point level detection of a wide range of conductive liquids such as water, and is especially well suited for highly corrosive liquids such as caustic soda, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, ferric chloride, and similar liquids. For those conductive liquids that are corrosive, the sensor's electrodes need ...

  9. Dishwasher salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwasher_salt

    Dishwasher salt is a particular grade of granulated, crystalline sodium chloride intended for regenerating the water softener circuit of household or industrial dishwashers. Analogous to water softener salt, dishwasher salt regenerates ion exchange resins , expelling the therein trapped calcium and magnesium ions that characterize hard water .
