Wetting agents are not only widely used in the industrial field, but also play an important role in our daily lives. Taking toothpaste as an example, wetting agents are one of the important components in toothpaste. Their main function is to maintain a certain amount of moisture in toothpaste, prevent the paste from hardening and blocking the tube opening, and maintain the stability of the paste at low temperatures.

Common toothpaste wetting agents include glycerin, propylene glycol, sorbitol, etc. These wetting agents can give toothpaste a shine and make it less prone to freezing and hardening at low temperatures. At the same time, wetting agents can also improve the cleaning effect of toothpaste, making it easier to remove dirt from the mouth.

In addition, wetting agents are also used in daily necessities such as detergents and cosmetics. In detergents, wetting agents can reduce the surface tension of water, making it easier for detergents to penetrate into the fibers of clothing, thereby improving the washing effect. In cosmetics, wetting agents can maintain the moisture level of the product and improve the user experience.

With the continuous development of technology, the application of wetting agents in daily life will become more widespread, bringing more convenience and comfort to our lives.
