Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Alkane Solution:  Adsorption to Steel Surfaces

Abstract: The adsorption of the unsaturated fatty acids oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acid on steel surfaces has been investigated by means of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Two different solvents were used, n-hexadecane and its highly branched isomer, viz., 2,2,4,4,6,8,8-heptamethylnonane. The area occupied per molecule of oleic acid at 1 wt % corresponds to what is needed for adsorption parallel to the surface. At the same concentration, the adsorbed amount of linoleic acid and linolenic acid indicates that the… Show more

“…The higher excess enthalpy implies a lack of hexadecane molecules in the vicinity of the diene parts of the linoleic acid, i.e., between the layers. Here, it is also interesting to note that recent measurements with a quartz crystal microbalance [4] indicated the formation of a close-packed, mainly physisorbed layer of linoleic acid on steel without coadsorbed n-hexadecane molecules. Although the layered structure in our confined film is stabilized by interactions between the exposed diene groups on the monolayer-covered surfaces and the ones on the intervening bilayer, this attraction is overcome by the compression discussed above, which amounted to an applied energy of 1-5 × 10 −22 J/molecule.…”

“…Solutions of 0.05 wt% stearic acid, 0.1 wt% dehydroabietic acid, and 1.0 wt% oleic and linoleic acid in n-hexadecane were prepared for the SFA experiments and dried over molecular sieves (3 Å, 8-12 mesh, Tamro Med-Lab) for 24 h. The concentrations were chosen based on previous observations of plateaus in the adsorption of fatty acids from nonaqueous solutions onto various types of surfaces [4,6,16,[21][22][23]. The solutions were filtered through an Acrodisc CR syringe filter with a PTFE membrane (pore size 0.2 μm, Pall (LifeScience)) when injected between the mica surfaces in the SFA.…”
