Detergency mechanisms and cellulosic surfaces: A review

The release of soils and impurities from cellulosic surfaces plays a critical role in such processes as the laundering clothes deinking wastepaper pulps. This article reviews publications that provide evidence about factors affect mechanisms by which operate. In general, substrates advantages for contaminants due to their hydrophilic nature permeability, allowing transport surfactants contact interfaces with dirt.
