Abstract

A new bifunctional material,[2??nitro??5??(N??methyl??N??octadecylamino) benzoic acid](NMOB), has been synthesized and its film forming properties investigated by the Langmuir–Blodgett technique. Pressure??area isotherms indicate that NMOB forms stable monolayers below 40 mN/m which can be transferred to solid substrates. Multilayered samples were prepared on both transmission and reflection substrates and investigated by Fourier transform infrared ...
