Abstract
  • The effects of the presence of a molecular monolayer on the dilatational properties of the air/water interface have been investigated. Two water insoluble amphiphiles, dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline and quercetin 3-O-palmitate, were spread onto a pendant drop and the dynamic surface pressure was measured by means of drop shape analysis. The surface dilatational elasticity and viscosity of the spread monolayers were also determined by the oscillating drop technique. Constraints on the range of measuring conditions were investigated and we demonstrated that the pressure-area isotherms derived from oscillatory dynamic measurements display phase behaviour similar to that found in equilibrium measurements, albeit at reduced resolution. Both the amphiphiles formed purely elastic films that were characterised by a dilatational modulus that depended on the surface concentration and obeyed a power scaling law. The exponent of the relationship could be related to the thermodynamic conditions prevailing at the interface. The phospholipid monolayer scaling exponent was 2.8 in a temperature range of 20-26 oC indicates a favourable solvency of molecules in the bidimensional matrix. A very high scaling exponent (11.8 at 7 oC) for quercetin palmitate was interpreted assuming that molecules self-organise in fibre-like structures. This interface structure and the phase behaviour was found consistent with observations of the surface film obtained by Brewster angle microscopy. The structured quercetin 3-O-palmitate monolayers are disrupted by temperature increase or by adding a 0.2 molar fraction of the immiscible dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline. (literal)
