Question: Which is the film forming type of antitranspirant?
Options:
Mobi-leaf
Hexadecanoyl
Silicon
all of these
✅ EXPLANATION: Film forming antitranspirants work by forming a thin film on the leaves of plants. This film blocks the pores in the leaves, thereby reducing the amount of water loss through transpiration.
🔹 Mobi-leaf is a commercial product that contains a mixture of waxes and oils. The waxes and oils present in Mobi-leaf form a thin film on the leaf surface that helps to reduce water loss.
🔹 Hexa-deconol is a synthetic alcohol used as an antitranspirant. Hexa-deconol forms a thin film on the leaf surface that helps to reduce water loss.
🔹 Silicon is a naturally occurring element that can be used as an antitranspirant. Silicon forms a thin film on the leaf surface that helps to reduce water loss.
