Infrared study on molecular orientation and phase transition in Langmuir-Blodgett films of an amphiphilic microgel copolymer with the branching of octadecyl groups
Article Abstract:
sA study was conducted to examine the molecular orientation, structure and phase transition in Langmuir-Blodgett films of an amphiphilic polymer. The polymer supported a flexible hydrophilic epichlorohydrin-ethylenediamine and several hydrophobic stearic chains. The Kyowa Kaimen Kagaku model KBM-AP Langmuir trough was utilized to prepare the films. Results indicated that the films supported a well-ordered layer structure and hydrophobic alkyl tails that were highly oriented.

Electrochemical behavior of LB films containing a mixture of viologen and a phospholipid
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to examine the electrochemical dynamics of mixed monolayers of N-tetradecyl-N'-methyl viologen and L-alpha-dimyristoylphosphatidic acid. The Quiceltron electrochemical multifunctional system was utilized to obtain voltammetric recordings. Results indicated that the formation of an insoluble salt of violgen at high electrolyte concentrations correlated with the immersion of Langmuir-Blodgett films in a perchlorate solution.

Orientation and organization of Langmuir-Blodgett mixed films consisting of a phospholipid and a viologen studied by infrared spectroscopy
Article Abstract:
It has been possible to establish the orientation of Langmuir-Blodgett mixed films made up of a phospholipid (DMPA) and a viologen (TMV) in a ratio of TMV:DMPA = 1:2. It was found that the incorporation of TMV molecules does not change the organization of the DMPA monolayer significantly.
