    • Adsorption of the natural protein surfactant Rsn-2 onto liquid interfaces 

      Brandani, Giovanni B.; Vance, Steven J.; Schor, Marieke; Cooper, Alan; Kennedy, Malcolm W.; Smith, Brian O.; MacPhee, Cait E.; Cheung, David L. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-02-27)
      To stabilize foams, droplets, and films at liquid interfaces nature has evolved a range of protein biosurfactants. Compared to synthetic surfactants, these combine surface activity with biocompatibility and low solution ...

    • Mechanochemical tuning of the binaphthyl conformation at the air water interface 

      Cheung, David L. (Wiley, 2015-06-12)
      Gradual and reversible tuning of the torsion angle of an amphiphilic chiral binaphthyl, from −90° to −80°, was achieved by application of a mechanical force to its molecular monolayer at the air–water interface. This 2D ...
