The effect of counterions on surfactant-hydrophobized surfaces.
A common method for creating hydrophobic monolayers on charged surfaces is by self-assembly of ionic surfactants from solution. Several factors are important in controlling the structure and properties of such layers: the hydrophobic interactions between adjacent chains, the electrostatic interactio...
