The effect of different epicuticular waxes on surfactants' spreading behavior was also investigated, and the extent of adsorption on epicuticular waxes was calculated. The results showed that the HLB values of surfactants play a very important role for showing superspreading behavior. Furthermore, the spreading performance was also affected by the molecular structure of surfactant and leaf epicuticular waxes. A new trisiloxane surfactant II show a good superspreading behavior on cabbage and wheat foliage, which is similar with that of Silwet L-77(R). This indicated that surfactant II have a great potential to being an excellent foliage `superspreader'.
