We have investigated novel amphiphilic polymers with linear and hyperbrached architecture. One series of amphiphiles are linear blockcopolymers of PEO and Perfluorohexylethylmethacrylate (PFMA). A second series are linear-dendritic poly(propylene oxide)-polyglycerol surfactants. Langmuir-Blodgett films from these materials were deposited from chloroform solutions with concentration 2 mg/ml onto silicon substrates at room temperature and at a surface pressure of 35 mN/m.
Their structural properties were studied using X-ray reflection. The results provide information on film thickness, surface roughness and electron density variation perpendicular to the film surface. Layered structures were found for most samples. The bulk structure was determined using small angle X-ray scattering in Kratky geometry. Layered as well as three dimensional structures were found. We compare the results with the bulk properties of the materials in particular with respect to the stability of the thin films.
