The wetting properties of ALES (Ammonium lauryl ether sulfate), SLES (sodium lauryl ether sulfate), TD (dodecyl triethanolamine salfate) and SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) solutions and their adsorption capacities on coal dust surface were evaluated by surface tension, contact angle, sink time, wettin...
