Roles Classification
Chemical Roles:
buffer  Any substance or mixture of substances that, in solution (typically aqueous), resists change in pH upon addition of small amounts of acid or base.
surfactant  A substance which lowers the surface tension of the medium in which it is dissolved, and/or the interfacial tension with other phases, and, accordingly, is positively adsorbed at the liquid/vapour and/or at other interfaces.
Bronsted base  A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Brønsted acid).
