Abstract

Stearic acid layers in the form of microcrystalline grains were formed by a vacuum evaporation method on several kinds of substrates. By annealing, the layer of microcrystalline grains was reformed into a plane crystalline film on the hydrophobic surface of plasma-polymerized methane and evaporated gold with water contact angles larger than 30°. However, the crystalline film was not formed on the hydrophilic surface of oxygen plasma-treated plasma-polymerized methane, mica, and glass with water contact angles smaller than 18°.
