Phase diagrams of monolayers of the long chain fatty acids

The characteristics of langmuir‐blodgett (LB) films depend on the phase of the water‐surface monolayer from which they have been depoisted. A range of long‐chain fatty acids have been studied and it is reported, for example, that there are a multiplicity of phases in these materials, a finding which...

Description
Summary:The characteristics of langmuir‐blodgett (LB) films depend on the phase of the water‐surface monolayer from which they have been depoisted. A range of long‐chain fatty acids have been studied and it is reported, for example, that there are a multiplicity of phases in these materials, a finding which is not in accord with currently held views.
