Abstract

AbstractThis paper reports on the synthesis of a microgel star amphiphile and on the behaviour of its monolayers both on the water surface and on solid substrates. On the water surface, the monolayer surface pressure relaxes at constant area, leading to a “duckweed”‐type structure. The hydrophilic groups play an important role in this process. On solid substrates, Langmuir‐Blodgett films can be fabricated from it with unit transfer ratio and good laminar structure.
