释义	softenersoft‧en‧er /ˈsɒfənə $ ˈsɒːfənər/ noun [countable, uncountable] Examples EXAMPLES FROM OTHER DICTIONARIES a fabric softener EXAMPLES FROM THE CORPUS A water softener must be fitted after the supply to the drinking water so that this is left providing hard water for drinking. Benckiser is best known for its Calgon water softener. No other powder or softener is needed. One is chemical, using either a metal softener or corrosive. So water softeners are added to washing powders to prevent its formation. The second is to install a water softener into the cold water supply. Thus the volume of water that a softener can soften before regeneration is a function of the hardness content of the water. Water conditions have an important effect on their performance as do the correct functioning of water softeners if fitted. word sets WORD SETS► Cleaning bin, nounbin liner, nounboil, verbborax, nounBrillo pad, nounbroom, nounbroomstick, nouncarpet sweeper, nounchar, verbchar, nouncharlady, nouncharwoman, nounchimney sweep, nouncleaner, nouncleanser, nounclothes basket, nounclothesline, nounclothes peg, nounconditioner, noundeodorize, verbdescale, verbdisinfect, verbdisinfectant, noundry-clean, verbdust, verbduster, noundustpan, nounfabric softener, nounfeather duster, nounflush, verbFrench polish, nounfumigate, verbhamper, nounHoover, nounhoover, verbhygiene, nounhygienic, adjectivekitchen roll, nounlaundry basket, nounlimescale, nounline, nounload, nounmangle, nounmop, nounmop, verbpolish, nounrag, nounrinse, verbrinse, nounsanitary, adjectivesanitation, nounscour, verbscourer, nounscrub, verbscrub, nounscrubbing brush, nounshampoo, nounsoak, verbsoak, nounsoapflakes, nounsoap powder, nounsoapsuds, nounsoapy, adjectivesoda, nounsoftener, nounspin, verbspin-dryer, nounsqueegee, nounstarch, verbsuds, nounswab, verbsweep, verbsweep, nounsweeper, nounsweepings, nounswill, verbswill, nountea cloth, nountea towel, nountide-mark, nounturpentine, nounturps, nounvacuum, nounvacuum, verbvacuum cleaner, nounwash, nounwashable, adjectivewashboard, nounwashcloth, nounwashday, nounwasher, nounwasher-dryer, nounwashing, nounwashing line, nounwashing machine, nounwashing powder, nounwashing soda, nounwashing-up, nounwashing-up liquid, nounwashtub, nounwhisk broom, nounwindow cleaner, nounwipe, verbwire wool, nounwring, verbwringer, noun Collocations COLLOCATIONS FROM THE CORPUSNOUN► water · Water conditions have an important effect on their performance as do the correct functioning of water softeners if fitted.· Benckiser is best known for its Calgon water softener.· The second is to install a water softener into the cold water supply.· A water softener must be fitted after the supply to the drinking water so that this is left providing hard water for drinking.· So water softeners are added to washing powders to prevent its formation.
