Abstract

We fabricated the crosslinked films using p-hexadecoxyphenol (p-Hp), which is amphiphilic phenol and can form polyion complexes with formaldehyde at the air-water interface. The behavior of monolayers at the air-water interface and the surface structure of LB films was investigated by Brewster angle microscope (BAM) and scanning Maxwell-stress microscope (SMM), respectively. We have provided evidence for the high insulating performance of phenol-formaldehyde thin films by the LB method.
