The amphiphilic TEMPO molecules consist of two dissimilar parts. One part is hydrophilic (head) and the rest part is hydrophobic (tail). The derivatives of 4-alkaneamino-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy radical ( C n-amino-TEMPO, n = 14, 16, 18, 20, 22) was synthesized with 4-amino-TEMPO and carboxylic acid. The C n-amino-TEMPOs equilibrated at the air/water interface form Langmuir monolayer by classical Langmuir monolayer techniques. The stable monolayers of C 14-22-amino-TEMPOs were characterized by pressure–area isotherms. The features of collapse pressure of C 14-22-amino-TEMPOs were confirmed on alkyl chain length. Limiting area points and take-off area points from surface pressure-MMA isotherms were subjected to the influence of subphase. The monolayer of C 22-amino-TEMPO which has longer alkyl chain was characterized by Brewster Angle Microscopy. So we can confirm phase transition by BAM images as monolayer is expanding at the room temperature.

We have developed a novel experimental method, which enables quantitative determination of interaction forces between interfacial nanoparticles as a function of the inter-particle distance at liquid interfaces.
