Abstract
We suggest a simple molecular model to analyze the compression-induced Maxwell-displacement-current (MDC) behavior of a Langmuir monolayer. The constituent chain molecule is viewed as a kinkable rod, with the kink schematizing the possible trans-gauche isomerization of organic chains. The use of the concept of kink is an attempt to improve the well-known rodlike model. Our analysis indicates that this model is beneficial for recognition of MDC behavior of monolayers.
