(goggles) ANTIMIST SPRAY, 500 ml

Anti-foging agents are chemicals that prevent the condensation of water in the form of small droplets on a surface which resemble fog. The treatments work by minimizing surface tension, resulting in a non-scattering film of water instead of single droplets.

Anti-fog treatments usually work either by application of a surfactant film, or by creating a hydrophilic surface.

Anti-fog

The performance anti-fog spray for goggles and glasses is defined by the hydrophilic properties + how well it sticks to the lens itself

The following substances are used as anti-fog agents:

• Surfactants that minimize the surface tension of the water: Detergents such as shampoo, soap, or shaving cream applied as a solution and wiped off without rinsing
• Hydrophilic coatings that maximize the surface energy: Polymers and hydrogels (Gelatin), Colloids and nanoparticles (Titanium dioxide, becomes highly hydrophilic under UV light).
