There is evidence from atomic force microscopy for a long-range attractive force between hydrophobic surfaces that is virtually identical to that observed with the surface forces apparatus. This force is present in the nonaqueous solvent ethylene glycol. A possible molecular mechanism involves in-plane polarized domains of solid-like monolayers adsorbed on mica, and a theoretical model has been developed that accounts for many of the observations.
原子力显微镜的证据表明,疏水表面之间存在一种长程吸引力,这与表面力仪所观察到的力几乎相同。这种力存在于非水溶剂乙二醇中。一种可能的分子机制涉及吸附在云母上的类固体单层的面内极化域,并且已经建立了一个理论模型来解释许多观察结果。
