Abstract The effects of benzene or hexane used as spreading solvents on the surface pressure-area isotherms of octadecanol and stearic acid were investigated. It was found that monolayers of stearic acid expanded more than those of octadecanol when benzene liquid or vapour was added to the surface. Benzene vapour was irreversibly adsorbed on a monolayer of stearic acid. Monolayers of octadecanol expanded when the concentration of benzene in the subphase was increased. An expansion of the monolayer with age was observed; this was greater for octadecanol than for stearic acid. Aging could be attributed to changes in the structure of the monolayers as well as to contamination. Expansions resulting from both aging and solvent effects were greater at low surface pressures.
