The shear properties of Langmuir—Blodgett layers
Abstract
The sliding friction between two highly oriented monolayers has been studied by using molecularly smooth mica substrates in the form of contacting orthogonal cylinders. The monolayers in the form of various normal alipathic carboxylic acids and their soaps were deposited with the aid of the Langmuir-Blodgett technique by transfer from aqueous substrates. The normal alkyl group has been varied in length from 14 to 22 methylene repeat units. Data are reported also on the influence of partial saponification of the carboxylic acid and fluorination of the alkyl chain. Most of the investigation has been confined to two contacting single monolayers although a limited amount of data is presented for multilayers sliding over one another. The character of the sliding motion depends not only on the machine but also on the monolayers, particularly their chemistry. Most of the monolayers studied provide a continuous rate of energy dissipation. However, a small number, such as certain soaps, show discontinuous or stick-slip motion. The experimental arrangement allows simultaneous measurement of the sliding frictional force, contact area and film thickness to be made during sliding. In some experiments this friction is the monotonic sliding friction but in others it is the mean maximum value during the stick phase. The film thickness measurement is accurate to 0.2 mm which allows a precise assessment of the shear plane during sliding. In all cases the monolayers and multilayers were found to be extremely durable and shear invariably occurred at the original interface between the monolayers. The sliding friction data are presented as the dynamic specific friction force or interface shear strength, and a number of contact variables have been examined. These include the applied normal load per unit contact area or mean contact pressure, the temperature and the sliding velocity. The interface shear strength is found, to a good approximation, to increase linearly with mean contact pressure but to decrease linearly with temperature in the ranges studied. The influence of sliding velocity is more complex. In the case where intermittent motion is detected the mean maximum values decrease linearly with the logarithm of the velocity. During smooth motions there is a linear increase of interface shear strength with the logarithm of the sliding velocity. The data show that the magnitude of interface shear strength and its change with contact variables are relatively insensitive to the chain length of the alkyl group but partial fluorination of this chain produces a marked increase in friction. Saponification with calcium ions causes a reduction in the specific frictional work. The trends in these data have been found to be amenable to an analysis based upon a simple stress-modified thermally activated Eyring model. The model assumes a linear increase in activation energy with mean contact pressure, and an arbitrary correction is made for the unknown extent of contact-pressure retardation during sliding. The parameters obtained by fitting the data to this model suggest that the sliding is accompanied by relaxation processes that involve the relative movement of a number of molecular chains or parts of these chains in the shear plane. This is tantamount to a dislocation moving in two dimensions.

In air/oils, boundary layers adhere through van der Waals bonding between alkyl tails; sliding shears these bonds and occurs at midplane interface (slip plane).
“In air (and likewise in oils), as shown long ago by Hardy and extensively studied since [7, 8, 92, 93], the boundary layers adhere through van der Waals bonding at the interface between their alkyl tails. When sliding past each other, these bonds shear and sliding occurs at the midplane interface, which is then the slip plane.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
