The adsorption of a polycation to the arachidic acid Langmuir layer and the subsequent transfer of the highly ordered and stabilised monolayer onto a polypropylene membrane (Cellgard 2400) yields a laminated separation layer combining the advantageous high degree of order of fatty acid films and the stability of thin polymeric films. X-ray reflectivity data of these films confirm the transfer of the assembled polymer layer together with the fatty acid monolayer and the formation of ordered Y-type LB-films. SFM pictures show a dense film without pinholes completely covering the porous support.

A similar systematic study has been carried out in the presence of Cd{\´y}+ ions for comparison purposes. The surface pressure and surface potential isotherms demonstrate that the acid to salt conversion of arachidic acid in the presence of uranyl ions occurs at lower bulk pH values (pH=3.5) as compared with other bivalent metal counterions such as Cd{\´y}+. Changes in the surface morphology of the monolayer induced by the interaction with uranyl- and cadmium ions are analyzed and the correlation between the surface potential change and the morphology of the films is discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{PenacoradaAngelovaKamusewitzetal.1995, author = {Penacorada, Florencio and Angelova, Angelina and Kamusewitz, Helmut and Reiche, J{\"u}rgen and Brehmer, Ludwig}, title = {Scanning Force Microscopy and Wetting study of the Surface Modification of a Polypropylene Mambrane by Means of Langmuir-Blodgett Film Deposition}, year = {1995}, abstract = {Polypropylene membranes with deposited ultrathin "siin" layers are attractive for separation and cleaning of gaseous mixtures. In the present study, the surface morphology and wetting hysteresis of composite membranes consisting of a microporous polypropylene support and Langmuir-Blodgett ("skin") films, are investigated. The effect of the interlayer molecular interactions and the substrate features on the integrity and homogeneity of the "skin" layers is examined. Langmuir-Blodgett films of arachidic acid and cadmium and calcium arachidate are characterized both on smooth silicon and on porous polypropylene supports. Contact angle measurements and scanning force microscopy (SFM) are applied for investigations of the membrane surface modification upon transfer of a different number of monolayers. It was found that the contact angle hysteresis of the bare membrane decreases after the LB-deposition of close-packed monolayers. Smoothing of the membrane surface is also evidenced by the SFM images, on different length scales, confirming a good coverage of the membrane pores.}, language = {en} } @article{KnochenhauerReicheBarberkaetal.1995, author = {Knochenhauer, Gerald and Reiche, J{\"u}rgen and Barberka, Thomas Andreas and Woolley, Martin and Tredgold, Richard H. and Hodge, P. and Brehmer, Ludwig}, title = {Do perfluorianted chains always have to be twisted?}, year = {1995}, abstract = {Short perfluorinated cabon chains do not take on helical structure when they are closely packed}, language = {en} } @article{JutilaJanietzReicheetal.1995, author = {Jutila, Arimati and Janietz, Dietmar and Reiche, J{\"u}rgen and Lemmetyinen, Helge}, title = {Photophysical investigation of Langmuir-Blodgett films of amphiphilic discotic penta-alkynes}, year = {1995}, abstract = {Amphiphilic discotic pentakis (arylethynyl) benzene compounds 1 and 2 containing an enlarged aromatic core functioning as a chromophoric p-electron system were studied with regard to their photophysical properties within Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films.
