AFM studies on the thickness and mechanical properties surfactant corrosion inhibitor films

An atomic force microscopy (AFM) study is presented to investigate the adsorption on mica and gold of a corrosion inhibitor tall oil fatty acid (TOFA) imidazolium chloride in aqueous solution. The formation of a continuous flat layer was observed at half and twice the critical micelle concentration...
