Abstract
AbstractA constitutive equation has been developed to relate surface stresses to the deformational history of an interface. To verify the applicability of the equation to real surface films, experimental studies involving spread and adsorbed monolayers have been conducted using the deep‐channel surface rheometer operated both under the conditions of oscillatory and constant floor motion. The results reported here are the first obtained using an oscillatory system.Experimental results indicate that both spread and adsorbed monolayers can exhibit viscoelastic behavior which may be represented by the model. Furthermore, it has been found that for three long chain, fatty acid films, spread on a pH 6.1 aqueous substrate, surface shear viscosity and surface elasticity increase with film pressure and molecular weight. The observed rheological behavior was found to be strongly pH dependent.
