Preparation, characterization and catalytic activity of amphiphilic cyclopalladated aryl imines and their Langmuir-Blodgett films

Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic phenylene ethynylene oligomers and their Langmuir-Blodgett films.

We report the synthesis of a series of amphiphilic molecular building blocks that can be self-assembled at the air-water interface to form two- and three-dimensional nanostructures with tunable optoelectronic properties. Compression of these molecular building blocks using the Langmuir-Blodgett method gives rise to monolayer and multilayer thin films with different packing densities and electro...

Langmuir-Blodgett films of cellulose nanocrystals: preparation and characterization.

The goal of this work is the preparation of monolayers of cellulose I nanocrystals providing flat crystalline cellulose surfaces. Suspensions of cellulose nanocrystals were prepared by hydrolyzing ramie and tunicin fibers with sulfuric acid. Due to surface grafted sulfate groups, the negatively charged, rod-like cellulose nanocrystals were found to form stable layers at the air-water interface ...

Langmuir-Blodgett films of polyethylene

Characterization of Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films of a thiomacrocyclic ionophore by surface pressure and AFM.

The new synthesized thiomacrocyclic ionophore 4-phenyl-4-sulfide-11-(1-oxodecyl)-1,7-dithia-11-aza-4-phosphacyclotetradecane has proven to form Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films. This ionophore shows a large affinity for copper(II) ions. Thus, the influence of the subphase composition on the surface pressure-area isotherms has been studied. The LB films have been observed by AFM and the...
