Chemicals in detergents lecture for chemistry teachers

An online lecture for school chemistry teachers on the specialty chemical additives inside the detergents we use every day. Italmatch Chemicals‘ Ruggero Sala (VP Sales and Marketing Personal Care, Fabric Softeners and Plastic Additives) and Fabio Costiniti (Global Business & Technical Development Manager Cleaning and ­Personal Care) have been invited to give a lesson on  Detergent Ingredients and how the chemistry helps us in our daily lives.

The lecture will be held on Tuesday 14th February and is dedicated to Italian high school chemistry teachers, as part of the Le Scienze Live project. During the lesson, participants will take a closer look at how cleaning works and what role detergents play in this process. The Lectures will analyze the chemical ingredients inside cleaning products, their functions and the different stages involved in developing a detergent formulation.
