Phase and Rheological Behavior of Langmuir Films at the Air/Water Interface: Polyhederal Oligomeric Silsesquioxanes (POSS), POSS/Polymer Blends, and Magnetic Nanoparticles
For over a century, Langmuir films have served as excellent two-dimensional model systems for studying the conformation and ordering of amphiphilic molecules at the air/water (A/W) interface. With the equipment of Wilhelmy plate technique, Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), and surface light scatterin...
