Abstract
The aim of these experiments is to compare the detergency (or the efficiency of soil removal) of several surfactants used in conservation. A non-ionic and an anionic surfactant were chosen as representative of those used by textile conservators, and formulated to produce a series of detergents by varying concentrations, and the addition of a soil anti-redeposition agent. In this manner the detergent performance with respect to surfactant type, surfactant concentration, and anti-redeposition agent concentration is examined. Some assessment of soil deposition in the wash-bath is also made. -- AATA
