This study shows that closest packed, oriented monolayers of n-alkanoic acids can be formed on oxidized aluminum substrates by adsorption from dilute solution. The formation of these organic surface phases is characterizedby complicated kinetics in which surface and/or monolayer defects, as well as impurities, seemingly play important roles. The structures so obtained are dynamic in nature inthat theyundergo rapid exchange with ligands in solution. The data further suggest an important limitation to self-assembly in this system which is directly related to the length of the n-alkanoic acid tail. The influences of experimental variables on the formationof orientedmonolayers is discussed.
