lam. The aqueous concentrates were prepared bv weighing the surfactants into bouies. adding the water, capping the containers with aerosol valves, and shaking. If the sunaciam did not dissolve or dis perse in the water at room tem perature the bottle was heated to about i hi-F . shaken vigtroush. and allowed to cool. The propel lant was then pressure-loaded.
Emulsification of the pro pellant was obtained bv a modi fication of the Briggs Method of intermittent shaking (2) . As a general rule, the bottles were shaken 20 times immediatelv after the addition of the propellant and the shaking was repeated one hour later. The samples were allowed to stand overnight and were shaken an additional 20 times immediate ly before evaluation.
Evaluation of Samples
.4. Emulsion Stability.- After the final shaking, the samples were allowed to stand and were exam ined at intervals for phase separa tion or creaming. The samples were then divided into four groups, as follows, according to their emul sion stabilities:
Group I -- Emulsion stabilitv greater than 30 minutes
Group II --Emulsion stabilitv between 15 and 30 minutes
Group III--Emulsion stabilitv between 5 and 15 minutes
Group IV-- Emulsion stability less than 5 minutes
Products with an emulsion stabilitv of less than. 5 minutes have a limited value from a practical standpoint since the propellant probablv would start to separate while the product was in use. This would give a foam of changing and variable composition. In view of this, samples with an emulsion sta bilitv of less than 5 minutes were not tested further for other pro perties. such as foam density and stiffness. It is doubtful if tests on foams trom such unstable emul sions would base am significance ami :: o doubitui that the results '* hi ill :>t- r-mroducei! with anv ,u-
Over 400 surfactants evaluated in simple aerosol foam system. Samples tested for emulsion stabil ity and viscosity, discharge characteristics, foam stiffness, stability and density. Surfactants class ed according to types of foam, emulsions produced.
curacv All ot the amphoteric sur factants tested t:ave emulsions with, a stabilitv less than 5 minutes and are listed in Table IV.
The method of preparing the aqueous concentrates m bottles was a relatively simple procedure. It is certainlv possible that manv of the surfactants that gave emul sions with poor stabilitv might have given excellent emulsions if other methods of dispersing the agent in the water, such as homo genization, had been used. How ever, in view of the large number of emulsifying agents to be eval uated, it was mx practical to spend the time to find the most effective procedure for using anv given agent.
B. Emulsion Viscosity: The samples were classified according to the viscositv of the emulsions merely by visual observation. The emulsions were grouped into three classes as follows:
High Viscositv i these range from verv thick emulsions to gelsi
Medium Viscositv (between high and low i
Low Viscositv almost the same viscositv as that of water alone;
C. Type of Discharge: The samples were discharged and the cvpe of discharge noted according to the following classifications:
Good -- These samples dis charged quietlv and smoothly, like a typical commercial aerosol shav ing lather.
Fair -- These samples were somewhat noisv in their discharge. While a discharge having a rating of good is preferred, the samples with a fair rating would not be discarded merelv on the basis of the discharge if a commercial ap plication were involved.
Poor -- These samples sput tered excessively and were verv
noisv. Willi lew exceptions, these
samples were too unattractive to be considered lot arc. commercial application. In manv cases, poor dispersion of the surfactant un doubtedly contributed to the un attractive discharge. Finding a more suitable procedure for dis persing the agent possible would give a satisfactory discharge.
D. Foam Stability: A rough comparison of foam stabilitv was obtained by discharging the foams onto paper towels and noting the time required for the foams to col lapse. The products were classified into groups according to the time required for foam collapse as fol lows:
Group A -- Foam stabilitv greater than 1 hour
Group B -- Foam stability between 10 and 60 minutes
Group C -- Foam stability less than 10 minutes. This group includes foams with low stabilitv and also products that did not foam at all.
. Foam Stiffness: Foam stiff ness values are given in grams in the tables. Foam stiffness was measured with a Cherrv-Burreil C.urd Tension Meter. The use of this instrument in measuring the stiffness of aerosol foams and the significance of the results is dis cussed in detail in Reference 3.
A tvpical aerosol shaving lather is included in Table I for comparison purposes. This foam has a stiffness value of 67 grams and would be considered a foam of medium stiffness. Very stiff foams will have stiffness values over 100 and chin foams will have stiffness values below about 40.
F. Foam Density: Foam densities were obtained bv weigh ing a glass dish filled with the foam. The volume of the dish was 350 cc.

tained with various surfactants are listed in Tables I, II, III, and IV The surfactants are first grouped into the tables according to theii effectiveness in producing stable emulsions as follows:
Table I -- Emulsion stability greater than 30 minutes
Table II--Emulsion stability between 15 and 30 minutes
Table III--Emulsion stabili ty between 5 and 15 minutes
Table IV--Emulsion stabili ty less than 5 minutes
The surfactants are further subdivided in Tables I, II, and III according to the stabilitv of the foam thev produce as follows:
Group A -- Foam stabilitv greater than 1 hour
Group B -- Foam stabilitv between 10 and 50 minutes
Group C -- Foam stabilitv less than 10 minutes
Group D -- Surfactants of little interest as a result of poor dispersibility, or poor foaming pro perties.
The data in Tables I, II. and III include the type and com position of each surfactant (4), the viscositv of the emulsion, and the
type of discharge of the aerosol. In most cases stiffness values and den sities have been listed for the foams. The values for foams with a stabilitv of less than 10 minutes

are also listed but it must be realized that these values represent the properties of the foams for onlv a brief period of their short foam life. Since the foams are changing almost constantly from the moment of discharge, the stiff ness and density measurements give only an indication of the pro perties of the foams during about the first two minutes after dis charge.
Table IV includes only the name of the surfactants since these products produced emulsions of such poor stability that the surfac tants were of little interest.

.40 60) propellant and the foam and emulsion properties listed are obtained only with this propellant svstem. Foam properties, however, will change -considerably with the tvpe of propellant. This provides an additional method for varying the foam properties with any given surfactant. An indication of how the variation in both quantity and type of propellant might be ex pected to affect foam properties is discussed in Reference 3.
The surfactants listed in
Table I are of most interest since they give the most stable emul sions. In order to provide a basis for comparison of the foam pro perties with those of a well-known

The properties of the foams that are produced with the surfac tants listed in Table I vary widely. Either stable or unstable foams mav be obtained by varying the surfactant. All three types of agents, cationic, nonionic, and anionic are represented. Since these tifems differ in their electric charge, riles provide an oppnrtimir to formulate foams with .m

attraction for different t\ pes of surfaces. Some of the quaternaryagents might be considered for the formulation of antiseptic foams. Other surfactants might be helpful merely for the stabilization of emulsion systems already contain ing other surfactants. In. this con nection, the addition of another surfactant to a svstem already con taining a surfaefant mav produce unexpected and beneficial results. Smergistic effects are often ob tained bv mixing surfactants. The u>e >( 2 per cent of "X" and. 2 per cent of "V" mav give excellent
emulsions and foams, whereas 4 per cent of either "X" or "V" mav give poor products.
Specific comments regarding the foams from the surfactants listed in Table I are also given and indicate the variations in properties that occur with different surfac tants.
The properties of the emul sions and the foams from the sur factants in Table I were checked twice. Other surfactants were eval uated oniv once. Since a given surfaciam is itten a mixture of vari-
EID11668
ous compounds, surfactants may vary from lot to lot somewhat dur ing manufacture. Different lots of the surfactant, therefore, may give properties different from those pre sented in the tables in this report. This should be kept in mind when testing surfactants.
The manufacturers of the various surfactants have not been listed since this information is readily available in Reference 4.
The information in this re port has been presented to provide basic information for the formula tion of aqueous foam products. If any of the foam compositions dis cussed in this paper are considered for commerdal products, the patent situation must be reviewed. U. S. Patent 2,655,480, Joseph G.
Spitzer, "Lather Producing Com position" is of particular interest for aqueous foam products. This patent is owned by Carter Prod ucts, Inc.
Summary Over 400 surfactants were
evaluated in a simple aerosol foam system consisting of 86 per cent water, 4 per cent surfactant, and 10 pier cent "Freon-12"/"Freon114" (40/60) propiellant system. The samples were tested for emul sion stability and viscosity, dis charge characteristics, foam stiff ness. foam stability, and foam den sity. The surfactants were classified according to the types of foams and emulsions they produced.
A foam with almost any
given set of properties may be ob
tained by selecting the proper sur factant. Excellent foams mav be
obtained with all three classes of surfactants: cationic, anionic, or nonionic.
