Abstract

Dynamic measurements in capillary condensation experiments with n-C₈ and n-C₁₆ were carried out using a simplified surface force apparatus (SFA). Evidence for a structural transition in adsorbed n-alkane films above the bulk T_m was obtained. Transition was characterized by a decrease in film thickness and a marked increase in the rate of surface diffusion.
