Abstract
Organic layers of tetradecylphosphonic acid (TDP) and octadecyltrietoxysilane (OES) are formed on flat anodized aluminum surfaces by a simple immersion process. The organic layers are characterized by dynamic contact angle measurements for water, AFM, low-voltage SEM and angle-resolved XPS. The results indicate that a self-assembled monolayer is formed using TDP, but not for OES. Plasma surface treatment prior to the coating was found to significantly influence the formation of organic layers.
