Steric acid

SFA has been traditionally used to measure the forces between modified mica surfaces. Before the JKR theory was developed, Israelachvili and Tabor [57] measured the force versus distance (F vs. d) profile and pull-off force (Pf) between steric acid monolayers assembled on mica surfaces. The authors calculated the surface energy of these monolayers from the Hamaker constant determined from the F versus d data. In a later paper on the measurement of forces between surfaces immersed in a variety of electrolytic solutions, Israelachvili [93] reported that the interfacial energies in aqueous electrolytes varies over a wide range (0.01-10 mJ/m-). In this work Israelachvili found that the adhesion energies depended on pH, type of cation, and the crystallographic orientation of mica.

Ion-Ion or Ion-Dipole Interaction. Figure 5b, shows the general characteristics of mixed monolayers in which ion-ion or ion-dipole interaction takes place—e.g., alkyl phosphate-alkyl trimethylammonium, or steric acid—octadecanol monolayers. The average area per molecule may or may not show a deviation from the additivity rule line, depending upon whether the two components form expanded or condensed mono-layers. However, surface potential per molecule must show a deviation from the additivity line since ion-ion or ion-dipole interactions reduce the average surface dipole of the molecules in mixed monolayers (31, 42). These interactions result in a negative deviation in the plot of log < vs. mole fraction (6).

Although structure-activity studies were carried out on the substituted trifluoromethanesulfonanilides, Trepka and co-workers (5) noted that no single property of the TFMS series members tested could satisfactorily explain their observed herbicidal activity and selectivity toward grasses, broadleaves, and crops. They concluded that a combination of steric, acidic, lipophilic, and electronic properties must govern the pre-and post-emergence herbicidal activity of the TFMS compounds. 

The small size and the particular design of the sample cells rendered the determination of pressure area characteristics in them impractical. Consequently, these characteristics were determined with a conventional trough (11). The solvent for the spin label solution was cyclohexane, and the volumes of spreading solutions used were 0.2-0.3 ml. These volumes were applied with a pipet by placing drops at various locations on the water surface. Techniques were checked by determining well known pressure-area curves such as steric acid.

Another use for silane treatment as well as for organics such as steric acid or octadecanoic acid has been to protect the surface of the particles from hydration so that they can be processed in a water-based system. Aluminum nitride, some of the ceramic superconductors, and materials like lithium aluminate fall into this category. The use of an organic "shield to produce a monolayer of hydrophobic material on the surface has been reviewed in several articles.

Until they are vulcanized, elastic, amorphous ethylene-olefinic copolymers have very little possible utility except as components of caulks or sealants. However, grafting MA on the copolymers, using peroxide initiators, and compounding the modified materials with zinc oxide provides improved rubbers. A typical recipe would consist of 100 parts ethylene-propylene copolymer, 20 parts zinc oxide, 7 parts MA, and 2 parts BPO. Curing is carried out at 160°C for 30-45 min. Previously grafted copolymers, containing 2-5 MA residues, can also be cured with N-phenyl-B-naphthylamine initiator, steric acid modifier, and zinc oxide crosslinker. 

Typically, chemical compounds incorporating hydrophilic and hydrophobic moeties are used to stabilize the monolayers on an aqueous subphase. To enable the incorporation of conducting polymer hosts [9] into the production of these LB multilayer assemblies, a number of reaction and processing schemes have been employed. These include the direct manipulation of soluble surface-active derivatives, the transfer of various surface-active monomers followed by a secondary polymerization of the multilayer films, and, finally, the incorporation of various mixed phases that contain both conducting polymers and conventional LB agents (e.g., steric acid agents).
