GlossaryZeta Potential

measure of particle surface charge in a liquid

Zeta potential is a measure of the electrical charge on the surface of particles in a liquid, which affects how they interact with each other. For example, in hair care products, understanding zeta potential can help in formulating shampoos and conditioners that prevent hair from clumping together, ensuring smoother and more manageable hair.
