Abstract

Long, straight alkane chains have been functionalised with sulphur-containing groups at the chain-end, near the chain-end and at the mid-chain. The behaviour of such compounds in Langmuir films has been investigated. Several gave stable monolayers from which molecular areas have been determined. Surface potential (ΔV) measurements carried out simultaneously with the pressure–area (π–A) isotherms provided an important insight into ...
