Surfactants ni sisitemu igoye, nubwo byose byitwa surfactants, imikoreshereze yabyo nibisabwa birashobora kuba bitandukanye rwose. Kurugero, mugihe cyo gutwika, surfactants zirashobora gukoreshwa nkibikoresho byinjira, umukozi uringaniza, gusubira inyuma, gutesha agaciro, ibinure, gusubiramo, kwigana cyangwa guhumanya ibicuruzwa.
Ariko, mugihe surfactants ebyiri zifite ingaruka zimwe cyangwa zisa, hashobora kubaho urujijo.
Ibikoresho byo gushiramo no gutesha agaciro nubwoko bubiri bwibicuruzwa bikoreshwa cyane mugihe cyo gushiramo. Bitewe nurwego runaka rwo gukaraba no guhanagura ubushobozi bwa surfactants, inganda zimwe zayikoresha nko gukaraba no gushiramo ibicuruzwa. Ariko, gukoresha ibikoresho byihariye bya ionic soaking agent mubyukuri nibyingenzi kandi ntibisimburwa.
