Spontaneously self-assembled fluidic bilayer of cholesteryl nonanoate at interfaces: Thermal stability and post collapse scenario

We report our investigations on the thermal stability of the intermediate homologue of cholesteryl ester, cholesteryl nonanoate (ChN) at the air–water (A–W) and air–solid (A–S) interfaces. Surface manometry studies on ChN at the A–W interface reveal that the limiting area and the collapse pressure o...
