Difference between Ferrofluid and Surfactant

Ferrofluid vs. Surfactant

A ferrofluid (portmanteau of ferromagnetic and fluid) is a liquid that becomes strongly magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension (or interfacial tension) between two liquids, between a gas and a liquid, or between a liquid and a solid.

Similarities between Ferrofluid and Surfactant

Ferrofluid and Surfactant have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adsorption, Chemical polarity, Micelle, Surface tension.

Adsorption

Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas, liquid or dissolved solid to a surface.

Chemical polarity

In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole or multipole moment.

Micelle

A micelle or micella (plural micelles or micellae, respectively) is an aggregate (or supramolecular assembly) of surfactant molecules dispersed in a liquid colloid.

Surface tension

Surface tension is the elastic tendency of a fluid surface which makes it acquire the least surface area possible.
