Preparation and Property of Perfluoropolyether Emulsions.

Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) glycerol emulsions were prepared. Three different green surfactants (AES (sodium laureth sulfate), APG (alkyl polyglycoside), and SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate)) were chosen to emulsify the PFPE. Their properties and performance in shampoo were also investigated. Centrifuge stability measurements show that three PFPE emulsions have good stability. They are stable for 60 min when the centrifugal speed is 6000 r/min. In addition, a change of droplet size was observed with time. Moreover, its rheological properties and application performance was studied. The AES emulsion was the most stable emulsion and it was found to improve the slip and lubricity performance of the cotton, so it has potential applications in shampoo.
