title: Adsorption and surface rheology of n-dodecanol at the water/air interface.
abstract: Adsorption layers of n-dodecanol at the water/air interface show phase transitions at low temperatures [Vollhardt, Fainerman, Emrich, J. Phys. Chem. B 104 (2000) 8536]. Using a drop shape technique it is shown that the dilational elasticity disappears in the coexistence region of the adsorption layer. The relaxation time between the condensed and liquid-like surface states is in the sub-second time range.
