A borate ester network Langmuir-Blodgett film of 1,3,5-benzenetriol monohexadecyl ether

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10587250008024886

A two-dimensional borate network of an amphiphilic phenol has been produced through the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique. An amphiphilic phenol, 1,3,5-benzenetriol monohexadecyl ether (C16-1,3,5-BT) was synthesized by the reaction of phloroglucinol dihydrate (1,3,5-benzenetriol) with 1-iodohexadecane. Monolayers of C16-1,3,5-BT were spread on the 1% aqueous boric acid subphases with various pH. The molecular structure of the LB film was determined by the FT-IR and XPS. The mechanical stability of the network film was indirectly evaluated by the SEM observation of the film morphology covered over the porous substrate.
