Abstract
The collapse process of porphyrin monolayers at the air-water interfac e was studied by Brewster angle microscopy and by compression-recompre ssion isotherms. It was found that the start of collapse observed by B AM is accordant with that measured by compression-recompression isothe rms. The behavior of mixed monolayers was studied also and the results showed that porphyrin islands were excluded from mixed monolayers at 35mN/m.
